We celebrate the Feast of Epiphany this week. May we follow the example of the Magi and generously offer our whole selves to God, sharing our gifts with others as expressions of love and worship.

Taking a deliberate pause to breathe is a simple, yet powerful way to manage stress, gain clarity, and appreciate the present moment. There is deep joy in being generous to ourselves and others.

See how many gifts our gracious God bestows on us… hope, all joy and peace, and overflowing hope in the power of the Holy Spirit. Let us intentionally express our thanksgiving to God for His lavish love.

In this Advent season, I wonder what God is prompting us to generously share with those around us? May we go the extra mile and then gratefully receive any blessings in return.

Proverbs 11:25 says – ‘A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed’ and Jesus promised a life of abundance. So let’s go the extra mile with our acts of kindness. www.randomactsofkindness.org/world-kindness-day

At this time of remembrance, may we hold close the many blessings we enjoy—gifts made possible through the sacrifice of others. May our generous living be a true expression of gratitude.

Living with hands clenched tight to hold onto our resources shows the world we don’t believe in God’s gracious provision. Let’s open our hands in faith, so that we can both give and receive with generosity and gratitude.

Isn’t this remarkable; it’s so exciting and a privilege! Anne Frank believed – “No one has ever become poor by giving.” Let’s rise to the challenge and encourage each other with good news stories of shared generosity.

A well-known verse, but the gravity of the message is a firm foundation for our deep gratitude to our gracious Heavenly Father. Let’s make it our daily intention to live generously, as a response to Christ’s sacrifice for all of humanity.

As Generosity Week draws to a close, may we be so infilled by the Holy Spirit, that our gratitude overflows into a life-long adventure of generosity.

Yey! It’s that season of the year when church communities put time aside to rethink how we can live and give more generously. Our individual giving becomes a collective movement of positive change. Let’s all be part of it!

During harvest season, let’s pause each day to thank God for His provision—and for the farmers whose unseen labour brings the harvest home.

‘Wells of Well-being’ – God created us in a wondrous way, and for us to thrive in life, we need to visit each ‘well’. Are you feeling drained or exhausted? It’s time to generously draw from that ‘well’ and be refreshed.
