When generosity feels risky

Proverbs 21:5

Diligent planning tends toward abundance, hurry tends toward lack.

When generosity feels risky. This is where faith gets practical. Pay attention to the sentence your mind writes next. Is it telling you that you are unwanted, unsafe, behind, foolish, trapped, or forgotten? That sentence matters because repeated thoughts eventually start sounding like facts. Money is a tool and a stewardship issue, not a measure of your worth or God's love. Jesus Christ is still Lord when the numbers make you nervous. One honest decision under the lordship of Jesus Christ can be the beginning of a completely different pattern.

What would you advise someone you love to do if they were standing where you are?

Jesus Christ, show me what is true in this situation and expose the story I have added to it. Give me wisdom for my part, courage to obey You, and enough trust to leave the outcome in Your hands. Amen.
