Habit 5: Mature Disciples Are Givers

Contrary to what our culture teaches, it is more blessed to give than to receive. It’s a spiritual law of God! If we give to others, something wonderful comes back to us.

Try it! Smile at everybody you meet today and watch their response. Give someone a compliment before you begin your intended conversation. Help someone you see in need today, and you will feel better about yourself.

Mature disciples give in three areas: their time, their talents, and their treasure. When we choose to intentionally do these things from a cheerful and servant heart, it changes our world. We learn it is more blessed to give than to receive!

If we treasure always getting more, we will never have enough. But when we choose to give what we have to those in need, our love capacity grows even deeper. If you want more love, give what you have away. It will come back to you and surprise you!
