You Can’t Out-Give God!
One hand washes another. After the last eAction issue, Carla wrote to thank me for the quotes I used in this section. She encouraged me for encouraging her. See how everything we initiate brings us a return of a similar kind?
It’s the old, “you get what you give, or what you sow” principle. Like I said several times last year, decide what you want to get from others generally, and then start dishing it out liberally at every opportunity larger or small. If you dish out encouragement, you’ll get lots of that back. If you dish out jokes and kiddin’, folks will kid you and share jokes.
I read Tuesday night of a couple who decided to give $30,000 to God over a year. By the end of the year they had! And all their expenses were met. The next year they aimed for $50,000. Again, they made that goal (with hours to spare), and all their business goals were met too. Now they are working on $100,000 for the year. Seems you can’t out-give God!
