What does this passage show me about God?
- How does Paul say each person should decide what to give, and what does he say God is able to do?
What does it show me about people — and about myself?
- When you give, does it feel more like loss or more like sowing — and why?
What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)
- What will you give cheerfully this week, decided in your heart rather than under pressure?
Who will I tell?
- Whose generosity toward you could you thank God for, out loud, together with them?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
Father, you gave your indescribable gift first. Make me a cheerful giver — not under pressure, but confident that you are able to supply everything I need.
