7But just as you abound in everything, in faith and utterance and knowledge and in all earnestness and in the love we inspired in you, see that you abound in this gracious work also.8I am not speaking this as a command, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity of your love also. 9For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich. 10I give my opinion in this matter, for this is to your advantage, who were the first to begin a year ago not only to do this, but also to desire to do it.
Are you inspired? Do you abound in His gracious work also?
Is you love for Him sincere?
I restate for your benefit; "He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich."
Yes you become rich with His grace and salvation. He is preparing a place for you and when your time is done on this earth you will see Him and the place He has prepared! Isn't that a wonderful promise?
May you grab hold of His love, His promises, His richness, His inspiration and never let go.
Blessings, David
