I love how he talked about the power of two words coming together. Instead of saying, "Lord, make us Generous," he added the word "Extremely" to describe how generous we should be...
A few other illustrations he talked about when two words come together are....
Hot Donuts, Half-Price, Bold Love, High Grace, Fast Cars...
God Shaped Life
I want to share with you three verses from Proverbs 11 (A God Shaped Life) that talk about the importance of being Extremely Generous...
23 The desires of good people lead straight to the best,
but wicked ambition ends in angry frustration.
24 The world of the generous gets larger and larger;
the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.
25 The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed;
those who help others are helped.
Desire the good, be generous, bless others. When tempted to criticize; praise or compliment. When tempted to gossip; Worship. When tempted to turn your back; extend your hand instead. Be Extremely Generous and watch the world grow around you!
