Heavenly Father, all that I am and all that I have comes from you. And all these things belong to you. To live solely for myself, and not sacrifice, is conforming to the pattern of this world, not the way of Jesus.

But generosity is the way of we who call Jesus King, who sacrificed His very life for us. Because of our love for Him, our desire is to be fully transformed into His very image, by the power of the Holy Spirit. We choose to follow the way of your kingdom and not this world.

I will strive to increase in generosity until there is no one among us who is in need. I will strive to be faithful with the resources you have given me so I will be trusted to do even greater things.

I want to be like you God, generous in every way. It is the joy of our hearts to live like you and to show the rest of the world an image of your Son Jesus.

Amen.
