SIR HENRY TAYLOR IS QUOTED AS SAYING, "HE WHO GIVES WHAT HE WOULD AS READILY THROW AWAY, GIVES WITHOUT GENEROSITY; FOR THE ESSENCE OF GENEROSITY IS IN SELF-SACRIFICE." I RECENTLY READ SOMEWHERE THAT THE AVERAGE BABY BOOMER GIVES TO THE CHURCH ABOUT WHAT HE WOULD SPEND ON A MOVIE TICKET. $7 IS NOT BAD OFFERING IF IT IS A SACRIFICE. HOWEVER IF WE GIVE $7 LIKE WE WOULD BUY A MOVIE TICKET OR A COUPLE OF HAMBURGERS, THEN WE ARE NOT BEING GENEROUS.
