Scripture: "In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'" (Acts 20:35)
Observation: Although receiving does feel great, giving feels even better. It sounds pretty cheesy, but I think it's true.
Application: I do tend to give quite a bit in different ways: I donate money to various charities, I like to give thoughtful gifts, I really make an effort to maintain relationships. But I probably need to give more of myself to God and do more of His good works.
Prayer: Lord, I think I'm a pretty good "giver", but please reveal to me how I can be a better giver for Your glory. I know now is not exactly the best time, being pregnant and all, but maybe there are little things that I can do? Just let me know! Amen.
