Unemployed Man Gives Away Money

Inspiration of the Day:
For many of us, giving away money is last thing we'd do after losing our job. For Reed Sandridge, it's a "journey of altruistic giving". After getting laid off last year as a director of a nonprofit group in Washington D.C, the 36-year-old decided to start an experiment in giving. Every day, Sandridge walks up to a stranger and gives away $10. So far, he's handed out close to $1,200! He also interviews the recipient and posts their story on his blog, "Year of Giving".

Today's Tip: Be generous in your giving beyond your church tithes'. Look outside the church and see where your money could benefit someone whether it's through charities, or a homeless person looking for a couple of dollars. Don't judge how someone will use the money, pray over it before you hand it out, that God will use it to glorify Him and leave it at that. Be a cheerful giver!
