SONG 5:1-8:14
2 CORINTHIANS 9:1-15
PSALM 51:1-19
PROVERBS 22:24-25
2Corinthians 9:7 Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
Psalm 51:15 Open my lips, Lord,
and my mouth will declare your praise.
16 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;
you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.
Nothing new from yesterday from 2Corinthians but some cool connections to the Psalm. When we have a broken and contrite heart, we are less likely to see our giving as a sacrifice of something and more of an offering in love.
