“Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:14-16 MSG
Be generous with your life. What does that look like? Be available for on the spot needs in people you are called to touch with the message of Christ. If you are too busy with your own world amd your own family then the people caught in darkness will not receive your light. Be available!
A generous person showers others with abundance. There is nothing more enjoyable than an abundant shower. We all rejoice in a generous shower of rain.
Be generous!
