For Generosity
Giving Father,
All that we have is from your hand, and what you provide, you provide abundantly. We can easily overlook or forget about your generosity, not because it isn’t evident, but because we are too accustomed to focusing on what we don’t have. Redirect not only our eyes, but our hearts, too, to see how you excel at giving good gifts. Then, as we see how lavishly you provide, replace our greed with gratitude and prompt us to give as you do – freely, eagerly, and generously. You provide us with so much, not solely for our personal joy and benefit, but so that your goodness can flow through us to others. While no example of generosity will ever surpass the gift of your Son, the most precious gift ever to be received, make us imitators of your generosity so that we benefit not only from receiving gifts, but also in giving them.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
