"Yet for your sake he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich." (2 Corinthians 8:9)

Giving as an act of love

Every time we give, something is taken from us and something is added to one who receives. Giving is never directed inward, it is always outward. "God so loved the word that he gave his only Son" (John 3:16). No wonder, giving can only find its meaning only when others are made rich by its very act.
We begin to be Christ-like only when we discover that giving is an act of divine grace. Hence when we give, we give like Christ, that is without boundaries, and without measure. That is true love; the love that regenerates and sanctifies us.

Lord I need your grace to love without boundaries. Amen.

Sacred heart of Jesus, may your kingdom come!
