It is a sobering fact maybe, but we spend most of our lives accumulating possessions, whether they are the house, the car, the boat, the job, the money, or the mate we desire. We think this will make us happier and give us a more fulfilled life. The key to a fulfilled life, however, is not gathering but giving.
How can we shift our all-too-human attitude of gathering into an attitude of giving? Is it truly possible to become a cheerful giver? In Grace of Giving, Marja Verschoor-Meijers answers these questions by taking an in-depth look at the commandment 'do not steal.' It is one thing to claim we do not steal, but a logical next question would be, what do we do? How do we go from merely keeping or obeying the 8th commandment to fulfilling it in our daily lives? Marja offers a liberating and fresh insight on the eighth commandment as she shares how we can leave behind the way of the thief, which always cries for more, more, more. In her known step-by-step method, she slowly reveals the way of the Master, which is cheerful, abundant, and costly giving that will lead us into a life in all its fullness! Grace of Giving is the fourth book in a series about the Ten Commandments in the 21st century
