Through giving, I receive.
The
delight in children’s eyes as they open a gift brings joy to the giver.
Tears of thanksgiving from someone receiving a helping hand can uplift
the heart of the helper. Lending a hand in a friend’s time of need
blesses them and me. Jesus taught that we should love others, sharing our time and
attention, expecting nothing in return. Doing so we create a situation
through which we receive unimaginable blessings in return. Through giving, I receive. I share the blessings I have
received and create a circle of love and giving that expands outward
from me to bless me and everyone in my world.
Give,
and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken
together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you
give will be the measure you get back.—Luke 6:38
