The church is encouraged to follow through giving their generous gift to aid ministry.
Paul continues the conversation (from chapter 8) on giving but turns his attention more toward motive.
God loves a cheerful giver.
Generosity it an overflow of the heart.
Give generously as an act of worship.
The subject of giving can be divisive because it exposes many hidden places in the heart…for people on both ends of the conversation.
Father, thank you for the way you give extravagantly in every way!
