“Give to him who asks of you…”
— Matthew 5:42 NASB1995
🌟 Generosity That Costs Something
Jesus isn’t just talking about pocket change. He’s talking about a heart posture that says, “What I have is God’s.” Time, money, attention—all of it. In a world obsessed with “me,” Kingdom teens live for “we.”
This verse invites you to live open-handed—even when it costs you something.
🖊 Real Talk:
- Do you avoid helping when it’s inconvenient?
- What might it look like to be generous with more than just stuff?
✨ Try This:
Find one way to give something valuable this week—your time, your ear, your energy—to someone who needs it.
✍️ Prayer:
Jesus, teach me how to live open-handed. Help me to give even when it’s hard. I want to look like You. Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
