Discipline is a tough word. We associate it with punishment or with short term suffering for long term goals. But discipline can be energizing and liberating. There is something exciting about working towards become the person that you want to be, whether that's physically, mentally or spiritually. Spiritual disciplines help us grow into people more like Jesus. One of the disciplines that the Bible talks about most frequently is generosity. This week's passage from 2 Corinthians 8 talks about the discipline of generosity, about finishing what we start. It's an important practice to manage our money out of God's economy rather than the world's.
