If we live our life for our self and never have a personal relationship with God that will be the sum of our existence… to have heard of him but never known him. We will be missing out on the only truth of our creation, and our existence will have been for nothing. We are put on this planet to enjoy marriage, have children and create families. Along with that we are to love and help one another.
When you help someone other than yourself, you are giving a piece of you away as a gift forever. However, that allows room for more to be given back to you, compounding itself again and again. You can not give it away fast enough, because God will make sure that you have a full tank and never run out. You are his supply and conduit for dispersing his storehouse of blessings to others. Jesus gave it all and never once considered what he would receive in return. That is why God loves a cheerful giver. His delight is in blessing you with abundance, so that you may bless others through him, sharing the love of Christ. We must strive all of our life to make sure that we have nothing in surplus when there is a need from another. Empty pockets will keep us from never wanting for more. God says to take nothing on the journey and to be solely dependent upon him; he will supply our every need through servant hood. |
