Give From Love And Gratitude Not Greed

Here’s a passage probably not many of us are familiar with:

“Give to the Most High as he has given to you and as generously as you can afford.

For the Lord is the one who repays, and he will repay you sevenfold.

Do not offer him a bribe, for he will not accept it,

and do not rely on a dishonest sacrifice, for the Lord is the judge, and with him there is no partiality.” - Sirach 35:12-15

The meaning here is similar to Luke 6:39 when Jesus reminds us that when we give, it is given unto us.

This passage also reminds us not to try and game the system. Do not to try to get over on God.

Honest sacrifices come from a place of love and gratitude, not greed. God only accepts our honest sacrifices.
