Being generous with one’s resources, talents or time change another person, but the generosity transforms the giver even more. In a culture that teaches us to grab all you can get to enhance yourself, this teaching goes against the grain. Being generous is a sign of where our priorities are really at. As our last devotional series taught, living for what is eternal has so many more unseen rewards than living for what is earthly, temporary and seen. If we are looking for the applause of others for the good we are doing, that may be all we will receive. Being generous in unseen ways brings far more joy and fulfillment that we thought.
