Cheerful Giver

November 24

“She is desperate,” the church secretary says, “I thought you might be willing to help. She can rent a car and drive her child to the hospital and back for fifty dollars.” Joy drops the money off at the church office.
The next day Joy finds $65 while rummaging through her desk at home. She had put the money aside for something she has forgotten about. (Hmmm). The church secretary calls and tells Joy the lady received a ride to the hospital afterall but spent $23 on gas and tolls. She returned $27 to the church office today.

“So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.”
(2 Corinthians 9:7)
