We Rise Together!

Psalm 100:5 NIV
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

2 Corinthians 9:8-11 NIV

8 And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

9  As it is written:“They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor; their righteousness endures forever.”

10  Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.

11  You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

2 Corinthians 9:12-13 NIV
12  This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but
is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.

13  Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God for the obedience that
accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing
with them and with everyone else.

1 John 3:16-18 NIV
16  This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.

17  If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?

18  Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.
