The problem we have with generosity is that we want to control it, manage it, and conform it to our vision of what and who is worthy of it. But God’s generosity doesn’t work that way at all. God’s generosity is unrestrained. Even the last and the least are worthy of God’s love and saving grace. And this is the God we discover in Jesus. The God who looks at us in love and overlooks all those places we fall short and chooses to shower us with undeserved grace, generosity, and love. So be reckless with your abundance and limited with your needs and wants. Think less and do more. Stop comparing yourself and your life to others. Refuse to compete in such a way that someone must lose for you to win. Trust that in God’s world there is enough for everyone. Let go of expectations based on what you think you or others deserve. And as the parable tells us, if we do that, then the world would look a lot like the kingdom of heaven.
