What is the “good life”? People have explored that question for millennia. It can be argued that Jesus tackles it as well, especially in his Sermon on the Mount. One of the key conclusions that can be drawn is that the “good life” according to Jesus is found in giving and being generous. Through the lens of generosity, we uncover the joy and contentment that comes from treasuring what lasts and being willing to share with others. Jesus’ teachings emphasize the importance of having a generous eye and not letting money or possessions become our masters. So, how can we shift our focus from accumulating wealth to embracing a lifestyle of giving and sharing with others? Start by practicing generosity, even on a small scale. When we learn to treasure what lasts we’ll be generous with what doesn’t and increase our joy!
