"The Treasure Principle" (Part 2)

A few lessons I learned and/or was reminded of while reading:

1) The more I give the more free I become.
2) My giving is a reflexive response to the grace of God in my life.
3) The act of giving is a vivid reminder that it's all about God, not about me.
4) God prospers me not to raise my standard of living, but to raise my standard of giving.
5) Just because God puts His money in my hand doesn't mean He intends for it to stay there!
6) I have a greater capacity to give, but choose not to.
7) In fifteen years of ministry, I have not taught the Biblical principles of money/giving well or often enough.
