We close out the month in 1 John 3:16-18. John was writing to a group of believers to encourage them and remind them about Jesus’ love for them. John described how Jesus gave the greatest example of love when He gave His life for us. To love IS to give. Whether we give our time, our talent, or our things, we can show the love of Jesus when we give to those in need.

Bottom Line: Jesus showed us how to give. Giving can be difficult sometimes. Maybe we want to give the very best gift . . . or maybe we feel like we don’t have the right resources to be able to give. But, when we look to Jesus, we can learn what generosity is all about. Because of Jesus’ example, we can learn how to give and invite others to experience the love of Jesus for themselves.
