Four simple suggestions for giving with gusto: Reflect on God's gifts to you. Remind yourself of His promises regarding generosity. Examine your heart, and ask yourself, "Is my giving proportionate to my income? Am I motivated by guilt, or by contagious joy? If someone else knew the level of my giving, would I be a model to follow?" Finally, trust God to honor consistent generosity. (See Exodus 35:20-21)"

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

Appraise your life. Occasions set aside for evaluation and regrouping are needed. Here are a few questions worth your consideration: First, am I really happy, genuinely challenged and fulfilled in life? Second, in light of eternity, am I making a consistent investment for God's glory and His cause? Third, is the direction my life is taking leading me toward a satisfying and meaningful future? Fourth, can I honestly say that I am in the nucleus of God's will for me? (See Psalm 139:23-24)

There is no shame in falling short, striking out, tripping up, or screwing up. It's only a shame if you don't use the motivation from your misses and miscues to try harder and stay in the game.
