The Blessing of Sharing...



The Blessings of Sharing

Only what we give away 
Enriches us from day to day
For not in getting but in giving
Is found the lasting joy of living,

For no one ever had a part
In sharing treasures of the heart
Who did not feel the impact of
The magic mystery of God's Love.

Love alone can make us kind
And give us joy and peace of mind,
So live with joy unselfishly,
And you'll be blessed abundantly.

This is the season to give to others that are struggling.
Pay it Forward and just be a blessing to someone if you can!

We are all so blessed...

I have shown you in every way,
 by laboring like this,
that you must support the weak.  
And to remember the
words of the Lord Jesus, that he said,
It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Acts 20:35


Have a delightful week!
