‘If it dies, it yields a rich harvest.’ Lord, you probably won’t require me to lay down my life, even though you do ask it of others today. Nevertheless, that spirit of total giving of self you do ask of me: to give and not to count the cost. ‘God loves a cheerful giver’, says Paul. The psalmist proclaims: ‘Happy those who are merciful and lend to those in need.’ Giving is not a duty or a chore. Rather, it is a response because we are loved, to the love we have been given. The challenge is to discover joy and happiness in being loved, and in loving and giving. Godmorning.
