THE POWER OF GIVING
The power of giving comes from a selfless act - where you simply give from your heart. This act of giving is not tied to an special event, holiday or celebration - it is merely a time when you give from the heart because you want to share what you have, show your appreciation and give because you truly care. There should not be any other motive behind it. You don't give so that you can get something in return. The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity. The best way to put The Law of Giving into operation is to make a decision that any time you come into contact with anyone, you will give them something. It doesn't have to be in the form of material things; it could be a flower, a compliment or a prayer. In fact, the most powerful forms of giving are non-material. The gifts of caring, attention, affection, appreciation and love are some of the most precious gifts you can give, and they don't cost you anything. If we all start practice of GIVING, the world would be a richer, more equitable and peaceful place. Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love. If you want to receive love and affection - then give love and affection to those you care about. If you want to make more money - then give a small amount in charity. Give with the belief that you already have so much and now willing to share what you are about to receive in excess - don't expect anything in return - just trust that you will get what you seek. God has given to all men free agency and has granted us the privilege to serve Him or serve Him not, to do that which is right or that which is wrong, but he will hold us strictly to an account for the use that we make of this agency.
