We must not only give what we have; we must also give what we are.
--Desire-Joseph Mercier—
Be generous with all that you have starting with who you are. Generosity is a soul quality, like all others, that is rooted in love. You see, there is a distinction between “giving” and “generosity”. “Giving” is the transfer of an item, service, act, or skill from one to another. Generosity is the love--the giving of one’s Self to empower others--that goes along with the item.
You see, you can “give” without love but you cannot “be generous” without love. Love is the essence from which true generosity flows. The condition of the heart tells the nature of the act. So, we say, “In all you do be generous”. Back all your actions with love and be generous in sharing your uniqueness with others and the world. Be generous with your time, words, acts, and material items. Offer them with an intention and attitude to do your part to uplift, encourage, and empower your fellow humans to help them become all they are destined to be.
Be Generous with Your…
~understanding and acceptance of others
~forgiveness and compassion for others
~words of praise and encouragement to uplift others
~time and attention to validate others
~help and support to those who are hurting, suffering or in need
You see, generosity extends beyond transferring something from one to another; it is a soul-to-soul communication that says, “As I help support and uplift you I am supporting and uplifting myself and all of humanity”. No act of generosity is ever too small because LOVE comes in all sizes and is the perfect offering for every person.
LIVE GENEROUSLY. Offer this soul quality to others regularly. As you are generous with others, generosity is always returned to you.
Be generous and let your divine light shine.
LIFE LESSON
Be generous in sharing yourself and your good fortune with others. Let your Light set an example for people to follow.
