Give, Give, Give

Give of your physical self. This may take many forms but will give you great rewards. When you have the opportunity to help someone with an errand or assist them in some small way you will find this very rewarding.

Many people enjoy volunteer work in their church or community. When I was young I felt lead to donate blood at my local blood bank. Because my blood type is rare it was always in short supply and I was asked to donate two or three times a year. I donated for over thirty years and hopefully was able to help many people.

You may want to check in with your local blood bank to see if you can donate for your self or someone else. As a result of my giving of my self God has blessed me with good health for many years. Give of your self, get back blessings.

Give out of your need. When you have a need in your life the last thing you think of is to give something away but that is what you should do. What ever we give to others is what God will give back to us and in greater amounts then we gave. When I get low on something I start looking for someone to give something to. God directs me as to what or who I am to give to and then I follow His direction. Before long, I receive back what I had given away and in a much larger quantity than I gave.

If you are not familiar with this principle then just think of it this way. What you give to others it is a seed and what you get back is the fruit. When you give, you get your needs met.

Give of your spirit. Many people do not know how to give of their spirit so I hope this will help. Your spirit is part of your true self, who you are deep inside. Your spirit is what comes out when you communicate with other people. It shows them what kind of person you are. To give of your spirit be open, honest, sincere and caring about other people in your day to day life. You may give them a simple smile, a kind word or a how can I help you with a small deed. If they have a need to be prayed for then offer to pray for their need right then and there or later when you get the opportunity. You will be surprised how by the end of the day your spirit fells joyous and you will feel as if your day and your life really means something. Give of your spirit, receive joy.
