Today's Quote
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life.
-Arthur Ashe
Todays Verse
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and
glorify your Father which is in heaven. -Matthew 5:16
Exultation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We've been told so many times that we need to give so as to get. I have a new
rule for you: give so as to give life. Giving so as to get is self-centred.
Giving for the sake of giving - to bless other people - is God- centered. Can
you even start to think of how many people will die today because of hunger? I
don't have the statistics but I believe the figures ran into, at least, the
hundreds. Just one meal to one of these will extend their life by at least a
day! The issue of giving has been so much politicised that it has lost meaning.
Give and it shall come back to us, we are told. Yes, it wil, but we should also
remember to give for keeps - not expecting anything back. There are many places
where you can channel your help to the needy. Nairobi Hospice is one place. The
many homes near you for destitute children are another example. Give! Give!
Give! Have a giving day! -Innocent Mwangi
