Psalm 112:4-9  
Light shines in the darkness for the upright. 
He is gracious, compassionate, and righteous. 
Good will come to the one who lends generously 
and conducts his business fairly. 
He will never be shaken. 
The righteous one will be remembered forever. 
He will not fear bad news; 
his heart is confident, trusting in the LORD. 
His heart is assured; he will not fear. 
In the end he will look in triumph on his foes. 
He distributes freely to the poor; 
his righteousness endures forever. 
His horn will be exalted in honor. (CSB)

Sunrise breaks through the darkness for good people— 
God’s grace and mercy and justice! 
The good person is generous and lends lavishly; 
No shuffling or stumbling around for this one, 
But a sterling and solid and lasting reputation. 
Unfazed by rumor and gossip, 
Heart ready, trusting in GOD, 
Spirit firm, unperturbed, 
Ever blessed, relaxed among enemies, 
They lavish gifts on the poor— 
A generosity that goes on, and on, and on.
An honored life! A beautiful life! (MSG)

Good lives overflow. They augment and enrich others. They enhance and build up. 

God blesses those who forward his blessings to others. He creates waves of mercy, waves of grace to flow from us to others and beyond. 

Blessings bless most when shared. We are extensions of His Kingdom come when we empower others with the strength he implants in our lives. 

Count your blessings, not your bucks. Blessings abound exponentially more than dollars collect interest. Blessings increase magnificently as they are shared. 

God’s blessings bear light and life. They beautify lives. They heal and give hope. They nurture. They fill the hungry. They hold the hurting. They comfort those experiencing loss. 

As you gather with your church family for worship today, catch God’s wave of grace, mercy, and justice. Share it generously and lavishly. Live an honorable and beautiful life of extravagant generosity. 

I will become a river of God’s extravagant generosity.

Our Father, thank you for your many blessings. Shape my life by your grace, mercy, and justice. Orient my life toward those who need to experience your goodness. Flow through me with extravagant generosity. Amen.

Acts 9:19-22 And after taking some food, he regained his strength. Saul was with the disciples in Damascus for some time. Immediately he began proclaiming Jesus in the synagogues: “He is the Son of God.”
All who heard him were astounded and said, “Isn’t this the man in Jerusalem who was causing havoc for those who called on this name and came here for the purpose of taking them as prisoners to the chief priests?”
But Saul grew stronger and kept confounding the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus is the Messiah.
