Night Prayer
But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
Inspiration
Anyone can give when reciprocation is expected. After all, the world teaches us to invest our money, time, and even our love where it will do us the most good in return. But to live as children of God, we must give as He does, without consideration of merit or return. After all, He freely gives to us, and we will never be able to repay all that He has given.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for loving me, serving me, and giving abundantly to me even though I could never earn Your generosity. I confess that I am at times selfish and stingy with my resources. So empower me to be more like You, to give and love out of compassion, for the sake of Your kingdom, so that Your power may be revealed in my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
