Biblical finance 3: Give freely

July 8th, 2007

Proverbs 11:24 One gives freely, yet grows all the richer;
another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.

It’s hard to remember my first official financial advice. But I do remember my parents telling me to give freely, and God would take care of your needs.  I’ve seen them put this into practice, and I’m trying to do the same.

For me, the application of this principle means the following:  if someone has a need that I have the ability to meet, without it jeopardizing my ability to pay my own bills, I will.
