Outstanding Moments March 4th, 2024

“You will find, as you look back upon your life, that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others.” - Henry Drummond

When you donate to a good cause, you feel good. When you help someone in great need by sharing what you have, you rejoice. Doing good things for each other causes the Spirit within us to celebrate. God designed us to do good deeds because His greatest joy is that we learn to love and take care of one another.

Most of us are better at giving a compliment to someone else that we are at receiving a compliment. When someone does something nice for us, we appreciate it and share the joy of the moment. As good as it feels though, the better part of sharing is being the giver. God loves a cheerful giver in every way because it means your heart is fully engaged in the process.

Give what you can to someone else today and tomorrow your happiness will surely reflect in your face and in everything you do. God bless you as you bless others.

“Freely you have received; freely give.” - Matthew 10:8 NIV

Let us pray: Lord, please help me to have a willing heart whenever I’m called upon to give to others. Help me to demonstrate Your love by the things I do. Amen.
