Giving changes the atmosphere
Did you ever notice how giving changes the atmosphere? You give praise and worship and the presence of God shows up. You give a compliment and it makes some ones day. Your husband comes home from a hard day at work, you greet him warmly and tell him how great you think he is and he out does himself trying to be that great guy you've accused him of being. Guys you bring your wife home a gift for no reason just because you love her and she is so touched she gets all warm and fuzzy. I visited a church once that startled me. When it was offering time instead of enduring it with solemn faces they rose to their feet with joy and thanksgiving praising God according to the scripture God loves a cheerful giver. It changed the atmosphere in that place. Of course you can change the atmosphere to evil as well with an unkind word, causing wounded spirits. Chipping away at some ones self esteem. What ever you give changes the atmosphere.
