A Prayer to Continue Generosity into the New Year By Alicia Searl "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." - 2 Corinthians 9:7 The New Year is upon us and as we begin to possibly ponder resolutions and ways to grow in every aspect of our lives, let's consider how we can continue to bring forth generosity this coming year. 2 Corinthians 9:7 lays out for us a beautiful depiction of the cheerful giver. If we take a look at the verse before that in 2 Corinthians 9:6, it tells us that whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, but whoever sows generously will reap generously. In this passage, Paul urges the Corinthians to follow through on their giving, as it is a blessing for both the giver and the receiver.
