people matter riches
There are some rich people who, no matter how much God sends their way, never seem to put their hope in their riches.
safety people rich
Rich people have the potential to reach a point where they see money as the source of their safety and security.
riches
My hope is not in riches but in him who richly provides.
mind rich cases
In our minds, rich is always the other person, the other family. Rich is having more than you currently have. If that is the case, you can be rich and not feel it. You can be rich and not know it.
motivation effort rich
We're so absorbed in the effort to get rich, we no longer recognize when we are rich.
rich-or-poor might matter
No matter how rich or poor you might feel, right now is the time to be generous.
christian children home
I'm concerned about the plight of children. But I'm not on a mission to get all the available orphans in the world adopted into Christian homes.
night issues care
I'm not a philanthropist. While I care about the poor, the issue of local or global poverty doesn't keep me up at night.
generosity effort may
While generosity may be the antidote for the dizzying effects of wealth, your appetite for more may function as an antidote against God-honoring generosity. Your appetite for more stuff, status, and security has the potential to quash your efforts to be generous. And that's a problem.
writing generosity giving
Generosity won't happen unless you make it a priority. The best way to make giving a priority is to make it the very first check you write every month. Before the mortgage. Before groceries or clothing. Before saving. Whatever the amount, do it first.
thinking generosity effort
Generosity helps us make a concerted effort to keep the needs of others in the forefront of our thinking. Not for guilt's sake, but for the sake of being good stewards of the resources we have been privileged to manage.
keys safety giving
When you make giving a priority, something happens inside of you. Especially when it's financially challenging to do so. It's like you loosen your grip on a value system whose motto says, "Money is the key to life and happiness and safety."
generosity priorities important
As counterintuitive as it seems, generosity begins wherever you are. It is important to make generosity a priority.
real opportunity differences
Generosity helps us cultivate awareness of things that really matter. Opportunities that make a real difference in the world.
