The Gift of Giving

Giving -whether time, money, attention, or love- is beneficial and pivotal in growth.

When we give of ourselves in any form the benefit to others is the same for us. Filling a void is just as remarkable as having a void filled. It increases us in spirit to lend a helping hand to someone in need. Instead of living with a "what can I get out of life?" attitude, live with the intent to give something to it. Life is not all about how much money you make and how many cars you have; it's more about the legacy you leave behind. Think about what you want to be remembered for and live life pursuing that legacy. "For God so loved the world that he GAVE his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)

"In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.' " Acts 20:35

Be Inspired...to give.
