A Collect for Generosity

Gracious Lord, who shared with us your love, your kingdom, your very life, grant to us generous hearts that are moved by those who are in need, that we would willingly share our worldly goods to help them and bless your beloved children as one family of divine creations, through Jesus Christ our Lord who lives with the Father and Holy Spirit in perfect love, world without end. Amen.

'And the crowds asked him, "What then should we do?" In reply he said to them, "Whoever has two coats must share with anyone who has none; and whoever has food must do likewise."' - Luke 3:10-11
