Have you ever felt incapable of giving because of limited finances? Should we feel restricted in our ability to give just because we feel empty-handed? Especially during this Christmas season, many of us worry about how we can give, and thus we find ourselves burdened with the pressures of buying gifts for everyone. However, with the right perspective, it is far better to give cheerfully rather than out of obligation. Lately, I have been pondering how I can afford to give presents when we are on a very tight budget. It certainly is much easier to give with a thick wallet. This is one reason why I am now asking the Lord to bless me financially. God reminded me of someone who demonstrated remarkable generosity even in poverty.
