GIVE
Luke 6:38 (KJV) "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom."
II Corinthians 9:6 (NKJV) "But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver."
