"A Cheerful Giver"

"Thank God for this gift too wonderful for words!"

2 Corinthians 9:15 NLT

In 2 Corinthians 9, the Apostle Paul talks about enthusiastic Believers' ministry of giving inspiring others to give, God providing resources to give and the givers being enriched to always be generous. The Greek word for this "cheerful"[joyful] giver is "hilaros", with no connection to "hilarious". God is not asking us to laugh all the way to the bank, but instead to give graciously, willingly and ungrudgingly. Giving is from the heart and cannot [and should not!] be forced through coercion or condemnation, but encouraged by the Word through kindness, transparency and good soil.

And with the good soil that is Masterpiece Ministries [Eph. 2:10], rare though it is, Holy Spirit periodically urges me to remind of ways to support the Ministry and its efforts to expand the Kingdom of God. If you feel so led by Holy Spirit, prayerfully here are some ways to do so:

1. Spread the Word and share our website!

2. PayPal [our email is masterpieceministries39@gmail.com].

3.  Cash App: [our handle is $Masterpiece39].

4. Merchandise Store.

To help support your giving through the Store:

• 20% off  - April 24th through April 28th.

• 10% off 3+ items - April 29th through April 30th.

Tell the world [and yourself!] that you are a Masterpiece and support the ministry at the same time. I appreciate and love you with the love of the Lord. Guess what? Jesus loves you soo much more.

Yours in Christ!
