You Cannot Give What You Don't Have

"I do not see people through the eyes of the world.
I see people through the eyes of God.

When Almighty God said He wired me differently, I did not understand.
Then He also said that He has known me before the creation of the Earth and said I would not understand.

I have asked them as our Lord JESUS Christ asked the Samaritan woman fetching water at the well to give Him water to drink, because He was thirsty. She took time in giving Him the water not  knowing that the water belonged to Him and He is the Living of Eternal Life. But she was Ignorant of this fact until He revealed Himself to her.

Ask. Ask and ask and keep on asking for water to drink in a land full of water and yet the majority of the people are still thirsty.
Ask. Ask and ask as many people as you can reach.
For in asking, they will reveal their true nature to you.
For it is written in John 5:7-8 -

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.


And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one."

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

You cannot give what you don't have.
And lest we forget, it is not money
It is Grace.
You can have all the money in the whole world and yet you will not have grace.
Without grace, you cannot love God.
Money cannot buy grace.
It is the free gift Almighty God.
The only qualification for grace is Faith in God. To believe that you can receive when you ask.
You will receive more grace in return for every act of grace.
The greatest form of grace is the one you give and share with absolute strangers and those you don't have any friendship and relationship with.
You are giving to God.

If you are unwilling to give to someone who has given you or not you are evil and ungrateful to God.
There are no excuses.

If you cannot improve the lives of others, you are worthless to the earth.
If you come into the life of someone and the person does gain anything from you, you are worthless.

The Greatest Charity

"The greatest charity is not generosity.
But the charity of humility."

- Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima,
Author of "The Prophet Lied" and other books.

The greatest example of the charity of humility is our Lord and MESSIAH JESUS Christ, the Living Water of Eternal Life asking the Samaritan woman at the well for water to drink.

John 4: 10-15-
10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”


11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”


13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst.Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”


15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
