Today we are reading Proverbs 14. In this proverb we read about being generous. “Whoever despises his neighbor is a sinner, but blessed is he who is generous to the poor. Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly. A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot. Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him.”
Proverbs 14:21, 29-31 ESV Consider those who live near you…who do you find frustrating or difficult? How have neighbors been generous to you? What are some ways you can be generous to your neighbors? Isn’t it interesting that whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker? How we treat our neighbor is a statement to God! What are you saying to God in this way? Pastor Tim
