Tithing is not generous. It's obedient. Generosity doesn't start until after we've tithed. The tithe doesn't belong to you. Leviticus chapter 27 verse 30 says the tithe belongs to the Lord. So the famous verse in Malachi chapter 3 where God is telling the Jews that they were robbing him. Why were they robbing him? They were robbing him because they were taking, they weren't paying the tithe. They were spending the tithe. That's why he says that they were robbing God. So we could say it this way, we pay our tithe, we give our offerings.
