Acts 20:35 NASB "In everything I showed you that by working hard in this way you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”"I have seen it time and time again and I'm sure you have too! Watching others give to those in need brings a sense of warmness of what life truly should be about! Today's verse shares about giving, helping the weak and doing so as we remember the words of our Lord! It really doesn't take much of our time, our effort or even our thought process if and when it becomes a way of life, that's giving, giving to others in need! Some of my fondest memories of my time on the Fire Department was when we gathered to carry, push and help the children with challenges, walk our local Zoo. The smiles on their faces, not only the children's but also on the men and woman who helped, shared how wonderful it is when we give. I wonder, when we see and hear the words "it's more blessed to give than receive", what comes to mind - I pray that it becomes our motto for living! peace, tom
