We are brought up and socially conditioned to get! To acquire! To hoard! To store up! To accumulate for ourselves! Yet the greatest key to happiness is actually to do exactly the opposite. To freely give is to hold things lightly. It is to put others above yourself. It is to express gratitude by way of action. It is to express love by way of generosity. It is to give out of the riches you have been graciously given. It is to shun the entrapment of false personal value. It is to lay down self as an act of worship. It is to express trust in the one who cares for you. In everything you do be generous in and on every occasion. Grow beyond the constraints of consumerism. Extent your borders out into the world around you. Make your world a better place! Follow the example of Jesus! He emptied himself so we could be full! #generosity #faith #giving #principlesforlife #lifestyle #personaldevelopment https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUkWXKFz5X8Uyoc49Gtpkv-yHPp-9pzmQz_L00/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mr46ddku26r9
