Witnessing unsolicited acts of generosity always, always brings tears to my eyes. I can't help it, I just love it. 

I love reading stories about Tim Tebow flying in a fan with a serious illness or disability (and their whole family) to the city where he's playing and paying for them all to watch the game, stay in a nice hotel, and spend a lot of time with them. 

I love watching news clips of the Secret Santa from Kansas City, who was once homeless and received the generosity of a friend, then spent the rest of his life dropping $100 bills at the feet of people who were in need, asking them if they dropped something. He gave away nearly $1.5M over thirty years in $100 bills. 

And I love when friends of mine tell me that they took a roommate out to dinner, paid the bill, and spent a few hours asking questions and listening to their fears, anxiety, and hopes for the future. 

Generosity is a spark that reveals the best in people. Generosity is a spark that cuts through fear and self-centeredness and treats others the way God would treat them if he were you. Generosity inspires, catalyzes, and transforms. 

Who's on your heart today, this week, to be unexpectedly, undeservedly, and radically generous towards?
