“Generosity begins with God, not with us. Our generosity, whether it be with time, talent, or treasure, is first made possible because of God’s generosity. It was clearly seen in the sacrifice of Jesus. How ironic! Out of His poverty we are provided with opportunities to be rich with our own generosity. The danger, of course, lies in the temptation to assume that it is we who are generous. We must remember that generosity is not so much a virtuous act on our part, but rather a virtuous response to what God has done and is doing.” Larry R. Evans in Dynamic Steward Journal, Jan-Mar 2014, volume 18, number 1, page 2.
