Only for those who have experienced the joy of giving or giving themselves, this represents something extremely pleasant, a very beautiful experience.

There are those who share, and more is added to them;
And there are those who keep back more than is fair, but they come to poverty.
The generous soul will be prosperous;
And he who waters will also be watered.

Proverbs 11:24-25

When we talk about gratitude, we are talking about sharing what we are and what we have with great joy, beyond whether we have abundance or not, the word of God shows us that generosity is a characteristic of God And it is an example for it to also be an attribute in us, the children of God, God wants us to cultivate this attitude.

12 The Lord will open to you his good storehouse, the heavens, to send rain on your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hands. And you will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow.

Deuteronomy 28:12

This attitude of generosity begins when we give our heart to God, we begin by giving our time and even our material goods. This is because we accept that everything we have and everything we are is because of him and for him, we understand that God is the owner of everything and we do not get attached to material things. But this is a decision and the basis is in trust. We go from rigorously speculating how much is the minimum we can give to giving without asking for anything in return, enjoying doing it with generosity.

16 Do not forget to do good and to share with others what you have, because those are the sacrifices that please God.

Hebrews 13:16

Just as here we speak of the sacrifice of giving, as we find full joy in this action, we discover that giving is another way of blessing others without expecting a return. Let us always remember that God provides everything necessary for our sustenance and also to cover when we give and help others even when we are in need, we learn to give and we also learn that God is unlimited in generosity.

38 Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be put into your lap. For with the same measure you use, it will be measured to you again.

Luke 6:38

Some children of God decide to turn a deaf ear to this and in some way be selfish, this is like becoming independent of what God wants for us, we can choose to be generous and cultivate this same characteristic of God knowing and having full assurance that we will receive everything we need, all our needs will be supplied in a timely manner by God. Do you believe it?
