Isaiah 32:8
Compare all
6 For the foolish person will speak foolishness,
And his heart will work ainiquity:
To practice ungodliness,
To utter error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry unsatisfied,
And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. 
7 Also the schemes of the schemer are evil;
He devises wicked plans
To destroy the poor with alying words,
Even when the needy speaks justice. 
8 But a1 generous man devises generous things,
And by generosity he shall stand. 

Consequences of Complacency

9 Rise up, you women awho are at ease,
Hear my voice;
You complacent daughters,
Give ear to my speech. 
10 In a year and some days
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.

Isaiah 32:8

Please turn over to Galatians 6, verse 7. It takes God's love flowing through us to make a personal sacrifice of time, money, and energy without strings attached, without expecting anything in return. But when we serve with a generous attitude, God's Spirit gives us peace and satisfaction. If we plant goodness, we will harvest happiness and peace.
