“Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver,” says 2nd Corinthians 9:6-8.
So many people have been inspired by this verse and other religious teachings.
This is perhaps what inspired Ugandan rapper Gereson Wabuyu popularly known as Gravity Omutujju.
A video posted on his Instagram on Wednesday shows the 26-year-old top Luga flow artist, who raps in Luganda, giving alms to a white child.
In the video, reportedly recorded downtown New York City, Omutujju is seen walking on Canal Street before he bumps into a street girl sitting on the floor with her stretched hand holding a container beckoning passersby to make donations. Omutujju reaches into his pocket and pulls out a stash of dollars, from which he picks an unspecified amount and puts in the girl’s container.
