2 Corinthians 8:12
“For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.”
What does 2 Corinthians 8:12 mean?
God looks at what you're willing to give, not what you wish you could give. Paul is writing to encourage believers who want to help others but feel like their contribution isn't enough, and he's telling them their heart matters far more than the size of their gift. Whether you're offering time, money, skills, or support, what counts is the genuine desire behind it and what you're actually able to offer right now. This is deeply freeing, especially when you're struggling or stretched thin yourself.
