“Generosity is the currency of the heart; invest in it, and watch your world flourish.'

Here’s the thing about generosity—it’s not just about money, wealth, or material things.

Generosity is a matter of the heart. It’s the willingness to give of ourselves—our time, our love, our grace, and yes, our resources—with no strings attached. It’s about living with an open hand and an open heart.

But here’s the kicker—our ability to be generous is directly tied to the *state* of our hearts. (Proverbs 4:23)

*Everything* flows from your heart. If your heart is full of joy, gratitude, and love, then generosity flows naturally. But if your heart is weighed down with bitterness, fear, or selfishness, it can block the flow of generosity.

1.  Feed your heart with truth.** Spend time in the Word of God. Scriptures like Philippians 4:8 remind us to think about whatever is true, noble, and lovely. 

2. Surround yourself with life-giving people.** People who encourage you, challenge you, and inspire you to be the best version of yourself. 

3. Check your heart regularly.** Take time to reflect—what are you holding on to? Is there anything you need to release to God? Keeping your heart healthy is an ongoing process."
