WILLING TO GIVE WHAT YOU HAVE



A preacher asked farmer: “If you had 100 cows, would you give 50 of them to the Lord?”

“Yes.”

“If you had 1,000 chickens, would you give 500?”

“Yes.”

“If you had 2 hogs would you give one?”

“Not fair, Preacher, you know I have 2 hogs.”

Carl Menninger (American psychiatrist who founded the Menninger Foundation) published a report stating that generous people are happy people. He also said that giving is a criterion for mental health!

“There is no happiness in having & getting, but only in giving; half the world is on the wrong scent in the pursuit of happiness.” -  Henry Drummond.

Act 20:35 (NET): "... remember the words of the Lord Jesus that he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
