God's Generosity

from This Time Tomorrow by Ian Peacock

/

about

‘The love of money is the root of many kinds of evil’, Jesus said. What we do with our money, says much about where our heart really is. If we have an unhealthy relationship with wealth, it will become an idol, a god in our lives.

God calls us to be generous with what we have, to give away cheerfully, not out of compulsion or duty. Giving away money, time and resources not only reflects the way God has treated us, but reminds us that we should rely on his provision each day, rather than ourselves.

lyrics

God’s Generosity

V1
May we give according to our means
that righteousness will spring up from the seeds
Let’s offer time, resources, wealth and prayer
to serve the poor, reflect a God who cares

Bridge 1
For every cheerful giver knows we’ll reap just what we’ll sow
Our all sufficient Father longs for fruitfulness to grow

Chorus
Though He was rich, He became poor and by His poverty grace overflowed
Now all we have we lightly hold, God’s generosity we’re called to show

V2
No one can serve both Jesus Christ and wealth
unless they compromise their spiritual health
So we must make possessions to be slaves
or they will master and replace the one who saves

Bridge 2
And all we treasure we will keep within our precious hearts
So may your gospel there be found and we will play our part
