6 Now this I say, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

This is the second chapter on giving from II Corinthians. This is truly important to God. Giving, whether it is our time, money or skills, is one of our opportunities to worship the Holy God who created us and everything in this world. The amazing thing is that God continues to provide for all that we need, even if we give sacrificially. That is giving to the point we feel it. It impacts our lives in a real way, not just giving what is left over at the end of the month.
Are you using the money, time and abilities that God gave you for the right things?
These short thoughts have helped me to meditate on Scripture every day...mostly for me, but you can look in too!
