Chris.
God loves a cheerful giver. Giving is very much a part of our Worship as True Believers. This does not just mean putting money in an offering bag on Sundays, it means, first of all, that we give our lives as a "living sacrifice to God" - which is an act of Worship. All our giving flows out from that relationship with, and closeness to, God.
