Two Kinds Of Givers
God loves a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:7
There are two kinds of givers:
those who give what's left over,
and those who give off the top.
The first group isn't necessarily greedy; they just operate by different principles. They see themselves as being responsible for meeting their own needs, so whatever's leftover goes to God's work.
The problem with giving left overs is that your generosity can never exceed your ability to meet your own needs. The moment you face financial uncertainty, generosity takes a back seat. God says He wants you to be "a cheerful giver." But if your heart is occupied solely with meeting your own needs, how can you heed God's call to be generous.
On the other hand, those who give "off the top" understand that God owns and controls it all, so they feel free to invest in His interests first and their own second. Leftover givers always struggle to let go in this area. They've heard the sermons, read the verses and listened to the testimonies. But they've families to feed, retirements to fund and markets to second guess so they hold back, afraid they can't manage all their financial responsibilities and give to God's work too.
Fear has the power to make you act contrary to your beliefs. In essence,fear makes you irrational. Isn't it rational to trust God with your finances, since all of it belongs to Him? Isn't it rational to trust God with something that's beyond your control anyway? Isn't it irrational to trust God with your eternal destiny, yet reject His invitation to be your financial partner?

Christ's Golden Rule (3)
Each of us can "slot" ourselves using one of the following statements:
(1) I am always ethical;
(2) I am mostly ethical;
(3) I am somewhatethical;
(4) I am seldom ethical;
(5) I am never ethical.
Which slot areyou in? The majority of us put ourselves in the second slot because of -personal convenience! Risking confrontation is inconvenient. Practicingdiscipline is inconvenient. Putting others first is inconvenient. Paying the price for success is inconvenient. Most of us think that being mostly ethical is fine - unless we are on the losing end of someone else's ethical lapse. If you're looking for a good honest standard of ethical behaviour to live by, you'll find it in Christ's golden rule. Here'swhy:
(a) His golden rule is easy to understand. You simply put yourself in the place of the other person. That's it! Even a small child can handle that. There are no complicated rules and no loop holes, right?
(b) His golden rule is a win-win philosophy. Have you ever met people who believe that in order for them to win, others must lose? No, if I treat you as well as I desire to be treated, you win. If you treat me likewise, I win. Where's the loser in that?
c) His golden rule produces peace and self-worth. At the end of the day, you have to be able to live with yourself! If the only way you can win is by cheating, you lose self-respect, live with the fear of being exposed, forfeit your confidence before God, and all your successes are hollow!

Christ's Golden Rule (2)
Good marriages, good business relationships and good friendships are based on Christ's golden rule.
Bottom line - show people that you value them!
John Maxwell tells of a new pastor who shared the following rules with his congregation: "
(1) If you have a problem with me, come and seeme privately. I'll do the same for you.
(2) If someone else has aproblem with me and comes to you, send them to me. I'll do the same.
(3)If someone will not come to me, say, "Let's go see him together." I'll do the same.
(4) Be careful how you interpret me - I'd rather do that.
It's too easy to misinterpret intentions. I'll also be careful how I interpret you.
(5) If it's confidential, don't tell. If you or anyone else comes to me in confidence, I won't tell unless the person is going to harm themselves;
or harm someone else; or a child has been physically or sexually abused.
I expect the same from you.
(6) I don't read unsigned letters.
(7) I don't manipulate; I won't be manipulated; don't let others manipulate you. Don't let others try to manipulate me through you.
(8)When in doubt, just say so. If I can answer it without misrepresenting something or breaking a confidence, I will."
And one final thought: if people can still construe that you're taking advantage of them, even after you've had a chance to explain your motives, you need to re-think your idea.

Christ's Golden Rule (1)
Whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them.
Matthew 7:12
What did Jesus mean when He said, "Whatever you want men to do for you,do also to them?" He was saying:
1) Value others. Seventy percent of people who leave their jobs do so because they don't feel valued. That's an indictment of how poorly some leaders treat their employees. There isn't a person in the world that doesn't want to be appreciated. Don't you?
(2) Thank them. Donald Laird said, "Always help people increase their self-esteem. There's no higher compliment you can pay someone than helping them to be useful, and to find satisfaction in their usefulness." How can you do that? By letting people know you appreciate their efforts. By making it a point to praise them in the presence ofthose closest to them. Billy Rose wisely observed, "It's hard for a fellow to keep a chip on his shoulder if you allow him to take a bow."
(3) Trust them. Without trust there can be no real relationship.Secretary of State Henry Stimson remarked, "The chief lesson I've learned in life is that the only way you can make a man trustworthy is by trusting him; and the surest way to make him untrustworthy is to distrust him."
Is that easy?
No, especially someone you don't know very well.
Yet that's Christ's golden rule.
As you strive to invest confidence in others just as you'd like it to be invested in you,remember these words,
"The person who trusts others will always loseless than the person who distrusts them."
