That's exactly it - when we give on the expectations from people, it's much easier to be generous to them. When I think of it as a trade, it all falls apart. Thanks for commenting, Jason. -Marshall Jones Jr. Yes, I love the way you put that: “It’s very liberating in that you give and don’t expect anything from the person, but trust God.” That’s exactly it – when we give on the expectations from people, it’s much easier to be generous to them.

It's sowing and reaping. Speaking directly to your example, I try to write comments that encourage even in small ways and add substantive things as I'm able. It's very liberating in that you give and don't expect anything from the person, but trust God. I desire encouragement so I sow encouragement. It's keeping first things first and not getting sidetracked! Thanks for a great post. I’m with you, Marshall. It’s sowing and reaping.
