Giving
Read Acts 20.32-35
“‘.. ‘..the word of His grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified’ ..’” (Acts 20.32)
Paul’s own life and manner of living had clearly been shaped and built by that word of grace, well expressed in the words he quotes from the lips of Jesus: ‘giving’ lies at the heart of grace, and the blessing of being made like Christ (sanctified) is tied to that.
Your growth in grace flows from your exposure to God’s Word: are there ways in which you might ensure you have a greater exposure to His word?
What sort of ‘hard work’ on your part might ‘help the weak’ today?
Prayer: May the grace of the Lord Jesus be mine, O God – that grace whereby, though rich, He became poor that we through His poverty might become rich.
