: Give me, my LORD, your generosity to share with those who need it more than I do.
Thank you, my GOD.
: Give me, my LORD, your generosity to share with those who need it more than I do.
Thank you, my GOD.What a beautiful reflection, Enrique. Your desire to receive God's generosity to share it with those who need it most demonstrates an attitude of selfless giving. As the verse in 2 Corinthians 8:3 mentions, "For I testify that they gave according to their ability, and even beyond their ability, of their own free will," it is important to remember that generosity must arise from a heart willing to give without reservation. May the Lord fill you with His generosity so that you can bless others in His name. God bless you, Enrique!
Mariana: The word of God is my spiritual food
: The word of God is my spiritual foodWhat a beautiful testimony, Mariana! Just as the prophet Elijah asked the widow to give him some food before eating, recognizing the importance of putting God first, you too feed your spirit with the Word of God. As the verse in 1 Kings 17:13 mentions, "Then Elijah said to her, 'Do not be afraid; go, do as you have said, but first make me a small cake of it and bring it to me; then make some for yourself and your son,'" it is essential to prioritize God in our lives. May the Word of God continue to be your spiritual nourishment that strengthens and guides you on your journey of faith. God bless you, Mariana!

: Who has the virtue of being compassionate and generous? Obviously, it is not the usurers, nor the hard-hearted, nor the mean-spirited, nor those who shirk Christian responsibilities; they do not walk in the ways of the Lord, but rather in the ways of the predatory world. Jesus Christ loves us and gave his life for us. Can we not love our neighbor and be compassionate?

Jesus Christ loves us and gave his life for us. Can we not love our neighbor and be compassionate?What a profound reflection, Francisco. It is true that compassion and generosity are virtues that reflect God’s love in our lives. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, adopting an ethic of generosity and giving is in tune with God’s grace and forgiveness towards us. Let us remember that Jesus Christ gave his life for us, demonstrating the ultimate act of love and compassion. As you mention, those who shirk Christian responsibilities do not follow the ways of the Lord. Let us follow the example of Jesus, loving our neighbors and being compassionate, thus reflecting God’s love in our lives. May Christ’s love and generosity guide our actions, Francisco!
