We reflect God's character the most when we give freely of ourselves with no strings attached, no secret motives, no hidden agenda.

On the other hand, when you do something for someone else, there's often a greater, deeper satisfaction.

The Bible consistently and directly indicates that when we give generously, we're serving, honoring, and glorifying God. After all, generosity is fundamental to God's nature.

When you give, you will be blessed. When you give, it will be given back to you.

We find our lives when we give them away.

Your job is to fill your own cup, so it overflows. Then you can serve others, joyfully.

Helping people is the action step that unlocks knowledge of the will of the Lord. The circumstances about which we are concerned have people in them. In fact, the key to solving our circumstances is being the Lord's person to the people in those circumstances. Few of the questions we have about guidance are purely personal, unrelated to others.

Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give.

A good picture is equivalent to a good deed.

One must know not just how to accept a gift, but with what grace to share it.
