You cannot out-give God. Remember, you reap what you sow; that's true in most cases, but not with God. He will give you back more than you could ever imagine. I wouldn't tell you this if I hadn't experienced the benefits myself. God loves a cheerful giver, so believe me when I tell you that once you start giving, you never want to stop because He pours out his blessings to overflowing. When put in the hands of God, the return on your investment (ROI) not only returns a spiritual increase but also a physical increase. The stock market has nothing on God! Invest in your church, and God will give you wisdom for the rest of your finances. Give generously, and He will provide more so you can give more. I'm not your preacher or a charitable organization, so don't get mad at me for making you feel remorseful for your inaction. If you don't believe me, give a little and see what happens. Ask the Holy Spirit to remind you when you get that unexpected increase so you don't dismiss it as a coincidence. 

“Can a man be a loser by doing that which God is pleased?” “Are not the love and favour of God better than all other things, better than life itself?” Matthew Henry  

But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:6-7
