9 As the Scriptures say,
“They share freely and
give generously to the poor.
Their good deeds will be remembered forever."
10 For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, He will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you.
11 Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God.
As you give we agree for a hundred fold return for all your giving. It's your giving that allowed a team to go to Pakistan after a tremendous earth quake killed many. It's your giving that sent a team to Northern Ireland and brought hope to an oppressed people. It's your giving that fed hundreds of people in Jackson County the weekend of Thanksgiving. It's your giving that allowed a team to go to Hawaii and minister to the homeless in the Waianae District. It's your giving that continues to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Nations.
