If you saw Tuesday’s blog, you know that generosity is one of the biggies when it comes to happiness in marriage. While that finding came out of the National Marriage Project, you don’t have to be a sociologist or an expert researcher to know that generosity is a pretty great thing to have, regardless of the relationship.
Here’s a simple prayer that packs a powerful promise. Try praying it for yourself or for someone you love:
I pray that _____ would be rich in good deeds, generous, and willing to share. (1 Timothy 6:18)
A beautiful little prayer! A warm smile is easy to give and yet such a generous and sincere gift to strangers and loved ones.
We can also be generous in forgiveness when we feel hurt or neglected by friends and family knowing that He is there beside us to comfort us.
Well said! Thanks for the great application of this verse…love the idea of generosity to “strangers and loved ones.”
