Sow Sparingly, Reap Sparingly - Sow Liberally...

Although perhaps not necessary, Paul encourages the Corinthians to give to good works liberally. God instituted the principle of sowing and reaping, and Paul makes this comparison to the giving of the believer. As one gives to God, God blesses with all sufficiency, allowing more giving to good works. Giving liberally to God results in a lifestyle of blessing, but as one is stingy with God, a stingy lifestyle results.
