A happy life is a life for others.

If you live life with the intention of making a difference in others' lives, your life will be full not empty.

I have fun. I enjoy my life. And I was hardwired for a deep connection between service, God, and happiness. You kind of need all of those things to be in play for one to have the others.

PEACE is generosity. It is right and it is duty.

His words even imply that philanthropy has deeper depths than is generally realized. The great emotions of compassion and mercy are traced to Him; there is more to human deeds than the doers are aware. He identified every act of kindness as an expression of sympathy with Himself. All kindnesses are either done explicitly or implicitly in His name, or they are refused explicitly or implicitly in His name.

Sacrifice without love is pain. Pain with love is sacrifice. Pain without love is misery. Love without pain is heaven. Love with pain is purgatory. Pain without love is hell.

The fewer sacrifices a man is required to make, the more loath he will be to make those few.

Every merciful act to the needy, the suffering, is as though done to Jesus.

Similarly, man is born for deeds of kindness; and when he has done a kindly action, or otherwise served the common welfare, he has done what he was made for, and has received his quittance.

Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.
