Default Give Your Love

Today's Turning Point with David Jeremiah

Love Languages: Give Your Love

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

2 Corinthians 8:7-9 [ http://iz3.me/Lkmu2zeTx1A1 ]

First John 4:8 says, “God is love.” And John 3:16 says, “God gave.” God’s loving nature was the reason for more than just giving—He created, He redeems, He provides, He forgives, He restores, and more. Yet almost everything God does can be put under the heading of giving.

Everything we have comes from God and comes to us because He has given. As David noted in his prayer, “For all things come from You, and of Your own we have given You ” (1 Chronicles 29:14, italics added). David’s response to God’s giving was to give back to Him as an act of worship. In fact, the apostle Paul said that giving (to others) is a test of the sincerity of our love (2 Corinthians 8:8). And what example of giving did he cite? The fact that Christ gave (became poor) to us so we might receive (become spiritually rich), (2 Corinthians 8:9).

What do we have to give to God and others to demonstrate our love? Think of time, talent, and treasure. All we have comes from God and belongs to Him. We are only stewards who give to demonstrate His love through our hands.

Self, service, substance is the divine order, and nothing counts until we give ourselves. Vance Havner
