PASSAGE: Generosity Encouraged, Titus Sent to Corinth
MEMORY VERSE: "So from now on, we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer." 2 Corinthians 5:16
NOTES: (v.2) "Out of the most severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability."
(v.5) "And they did not do as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then to us in keeping with God's will."
(v.7) "But just as you excel in everything--in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in your love for us--se that you also excel in this grace of giving."
(v.9) "For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich."
(v.12) "For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what he does not have."
ACT OF LOVE: We have two dishcloths that our family uses to wash the dishes, and they get dirty quite easily since they're white. Today, I lowkey washed both of our dishcloths and scrubbed the stains out so that they look brand new! I would have a picture, but I'm lazy.
