2 Corinthians 9:5-7
New Matthew Bible
5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go beforehand to you, to arrange for the good blessing you promised earlier, so it could be ready – so that it is a blessing, and not a defrauding. 6 Remember this: he who sows little will reap little, and he who sows plentifully will reap plentifully. 7 And let every person do as he has purposed in his heart – not grudgingly, or under constraint. For God loves a cheerful giver.
