generosity

remember the pair of pants in your closet that you haven't worn in two years or the shirt that is still nice but just hasn't been in your regular rotation of clothes? here's and idea: take a bag to your closet and fill it with all the clothes you don't wear anymore-even throw throw in a shirt you really like-and take it down to the local charity box or salvation army store and give it away. giving is a rewarding experience.

you know, rewards are everywhere these days. you fly a particular airline, and you get so many free air miles in return. purchase 4 CDs, and you get one free. there are just so many freebies out there nowadays man. giving offers rewards as well. what you give is what you get. the first reward goes to the people who receive your gift. they are rewarded by your interest in them and your compassion for their need. the second reward goes to you. when you commit a random act of unselfishness, it simply makes you feel good inside.

so, what are you waiting for? go and be generous to others, trust me, it is worth the investment. learn to give by the bag-loads and see how much more God can bless you. have a nice day !!!
