2 Corinthians 9:  11 You will be enriched in every way for your great generosity, which will produce thanksgiving to God through us

Paul is appealing for money to go to churches in Jerusalem. He tells the Corinthians to give as much as they can. He guarantees it will be used for God's will. 

It's sometimes hard to know how much to give. And it's true that people will take advantage of those who give freely. Maybe you even enable their begging. It feels good to know you have given generously. It's a shame that we are sometimes doubtful that our gifts were appropriately received. 

Prayer: Lord, I want to be giving. Help me to know when and how to share my wealth. Guide my giving to Your glory. 
Amen
