Giving Without Love
Seeking Him by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, brought to you in SASL by Revive Our Hearts South Africa.
This message distinguishes outward generosity from giving that is motivated by genuine love. It identifies recognition, praise, obligation, and duty as inadequate motivations when compared with agape love, which seeks to meet another person’s needs without expecting something in return. Drawing on 1 Corinthians 13:3, the devotional emphasizes that even significant giving is of no spiritual profit when it is separated from love. Believers are encouraged to ask God to fill them with His love so that genuine giving will follow.
