Step It Up

Step It Up

“Why did you give it away? I could have used it.” “I didn’t drive anymore, so I gave my car to the neighbor.” “I know I could have charged them, but it felt good just to give.”

Go beyond your safe walls. Dare your typical response and get to know selflessness. Step into a life that drizzles kindnesses and sprinkles generosity everywhere you go.

Inspired by Mark 10:17-23.

As he was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; You shall not defraud; Honor your father and mother.’” He said to him, “Teacher, I have kept all these since my youth.” Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, “You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.” When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions. Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!”
