Generosity isn’t measured by dollar amounts or estate plans; it’s written on the faces and in the actions of people who live with open hearts.
In fact, if you ask someone a simple question like this, you will move their hearts more than you know:
“Think about the most generous person you know. What do they look like? What’s their countenance? Their posture?”Take a moment to picture them. Chances are, their face lights up your mind’s eye. They’re probably joyful, peaceful, genuine—and not necessarily wealthy. That’s because generosity is about heart, not income. It’s about presence, not possessions.
When we make generosity personal, it changes us. We stop thinking in abstract ideas and start remembering real people who gave freely of themselves—and in doing so, reflected the heart of Christ.
When this question is asked, the answers are often the same: a grandparent, an aunt, an uncle—someone who gave of themselves through love, laughter, and listening. These aren’t people who built foundations or donated millions. They modeled generosity through steady love and consistency.

Managing money without a budget — or a cash-flow plan — is like driving when you can’t see the lane markings. You don’t ...
That’s what long-term generosity looks like. It starts at home and grows outward.
Every day, we have the chance to sow generosity through acts of service, hospitality, and encouragement. These simple seeds—when planted faithfully—bear fruit that outlasts any financial gift because they grow in people’s hearts.
If you long to leave a legacy of generosity, start small.
Over time, those small acts of faithfulness will shape the kind of life others remember as generous.
Generosity is most powerful when it’s shared. Families that give together cultivate hearts that reflect God’s heart. Take your children with you when you serve at a food pantry. Let them see generosity in action. Talk about giving not as an obligation but as a joyful response to God’s grace.
In the end, generosity isn’t about how much we give—it’s about who we’re becoming. It’s not just an act; it’s a lifestyle. When our generosity flows toward people instead of possessions, we participate in God’s ongoing story of redemption.
That’s the kind of impact that lasts far beyond our lifetime.
