Luke 6:38 (ESV)

38 give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

That you are a child of the heavenly Father is also apparent from your giving behaviour. This “giving” is meant broadly, and one day this heavenly attitude of generosity will pay off. This attitude does not fit the thinking of the world. There it is meticulously stipulated to “give a little, take a little”. The world knows customization, but the portion of the kingdom is not meticulously adjusted, it is generous and royal. And this measure will be allotted to you if you deal with those around you with heavenly mercy. If you are generously reflecting God’s grace and if it shows in what you do, God will take it into account on the Last Day. The degree to which you are rewarded is like a measuring cup filled as full as possible. If, on the other hand, nothing or little of God’s grace is noticeable in your deeds—if you have been moderate in it—this will also be God’s standard on the Last Day.
