Bible Question: Are we directed to "give when asked" - meaning that "we" are not to question how our gifts are to be used - we are to give cheerfully and leave the wisdom of it's use to God's direction?

Bible Answer: Scripture ... Deu 15:7-11; Psa 112:5, 9; Pro 24:29; Mat 5:42 ...

Greetings reismom,
I couldn't find Scripture to support asking the person what they need what they are asking ... then same is true when loaning money.

Giving when asked takes discernment. There are poeple who will abuse others by asking. Churches do this well, so I'd direct people there and contribute to that fund.

We do need to leave it up to God to weigh the heart.

Hope this helps, Searcher
