There
is a very simple principle that people cannot
seem to get the hang of -- as you give, so you
receive. People find it difficult that it
is necessary to give first and give righteously.
If you only give to get, you will not receive.
If you give out of fear, you will not receive.
Many people do not believe they have enough to
give. That is because they may be thinking
in terms of money only. If you do not have
money, give of your time, talent and energy.
Give a smile. Give a prayer. Give
anonymously without expectation of recognition.
The spirit in which you give determines the
manner in which you receive. If you give
freely, joyously and willingly, you will receive
abundantly. As you give what you have,
what you are not using, you make room to receive
something else in its place. Give of
yourself, your knowledge and the information you
have received, then prepare yourself for an
outpouring of blessing. And by the way, do
not expect it to come back to you from the
person who you gave it to.
