I know [people] who had the popular, good-looking path in high school; they tend not to do so well.

God never estimates what we give from impulse. We are given credit for what we determine in our hearts to give; for the giving that is governed by a fixed determination.

As saints our attitude towards giving is that we give for Jesus Christ's sake, and from no other motive.
Oswald Chambers
