Thursday, April 3, 2014 "Better to Give than to Receive"

In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’Acts 20:35

It is such a blessing when we are able to take our focus off of ourselves and place it unto someone else. Bless someone today. Help someone today. Whether it be a kind word, a ride, a meal or even a love offering. It will change your mindset and heal your heart. I remember years back receiving the most devastating news and my husband came home and got me. He told me the best thing to do was to accompany him to the local church he was helping out at and help serve at their fundraiser. I have to tell you the young children there were full of joy and so happy and enthusiastic that I honestly forgot about myself and my troubles. I was able to help someone else while I was at my lowest point. Be a blessing today. Especially when you don't feel like it. Donate when asked. Offer when not asked. You cannot out give God and you cannot out give His children. You will be so happy you did.
