6Here’s my point. A stingy sowerc will reap a meager harvest, but the one who sows from a generous spirit will reap an abundant harvest. 7Let giving flow from your heart, not from a sense of religious duty. Let it spring up freely from the joy of giving—all because God loves hilarious generosity!d 8Yes, God is more than ready to overwhelm you with every form of grace, so that you will have more than enough of everythinge— every moment and in every way. He will make you overflow with abundance in every good thing you do. 9Just as the Scriptures say about the one who trusts in him: Because he has sown extravagantly and given to the poor, his kindness and generous deeds will never be forgotten.f 10This generous God who supplies abundant seedg for the farmer, which becomes bread for our meals,h is even more extravagant toward you. First he suppliesi every need, plus more. Then he multiplies the seed as you sow it, so that the harvest of your generosityj will grow. 11You will be abundantly enriched in every way as you give generously on every occasion,k for when we take your gifts to those in need,l it causes many to give thanks to God.
