WORD 2day: 21st June, 2017

Cheerful giver or Colourful giver

Wednesday, 11th week in Ordinary Time
2 Cor 9: 6-11; Mt 6: 1-6,16-18

Some give cheerfully. Some others give colourfully, that is making a show of it to the entire world.  Giving is good but what makes it a virtue is the way you do it.
Giving merely because you want people to know you as a giver, is duplicity.
Giving and making sure everyone knows that you give, is publicity.
Giving and not being so much bothered about people knowing or recognising it is simplicity.
Giving and wishing that no one gets to know it is true sanctity!
