Be Generous
Luke 6:38
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” (Luke 6:38)
Jesus is asking us to be be generous.
Right before this verse Jesus speaks about being loving to your enemies and blessing those that curse you.
He speaks about doing unto others what you would have them do to you.
He speaks about being merciful and forgiving.
Trust that God has unlimited resources.
Be generous with love, blessings, being merciful and forgiveness.
God promises to give back what you have given. ~ Jeff M Newman

Listen now (10 mins) | Welcome back to our verse-by-verse Bible study of 1 John.

You Must Not Be Quarrelsome
And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and forbearing. (You Must Not Be Quarrelsome) God is calling you to be kind to people and not to get into fights. Do you argue with your spouse? Do you get in fights with others?
