Positive Daily Inspiration – October 26, 2022 – THE MEASURE YOU GIVE

“The measure you give will be the measure you get, and STILL MORE WILL BE GIVEN YOU.”
Mark 4:24

You are a spiritual person, so you decide to go the extra mile, you give the extra blessing, and new doors of good are opened in your life.

Think of a time when someone did something for you that was totally unexpected, something that required an extra effort on their part. Do you recall how it made you feel? Do you recall how your heart overflowed with gratitude? That person’s giving of themselves opened the door for an exchange of love and appreciation between you. Since we can never give without receiving, who can say what other doors in their life may have been opened through this initial giving to you.

If you have been praying for some new good, for some new door to open in your life, think in terms of the law of giving and receiving. When you reach out in love and go the extra mile, when you give the extra blessing, you set into motion a chain reaction of good that enriches the lives of those around you, and unfailingly returns to enrich your life beyond that that you can imagine.

Your giving of yourself opens new doors to happy and abundant living.

You will find, after giving, that you have many more blessings to count, because you, first, have been a blessing to others. We all want more of God’s good in our world. You are God’s catalyst to create that good for others and in return, for yourself.

Do not be afraid to give yourself away, for in giving happiness is found.

Today is a good day to pray for opportunities to give, and to thank God for them.

In Nehemiah 2:20, our Bible states, “The God of Heaven will make us prosper.” But the biblical law is that we must give first, and then receive.

People think that giving is just about money, but it is so much more. Give as God guides you to give – a smile, an attentive ear, a compliment, a helping hand, or money. It is the spiritual time when you are not too busy with self-needs and you give self to others.

Each one of us, reading these words of this Positive Daily Inspiration, has individual and unique ways that we can give to the world around us. I suggest that for the next 12 hours, you dedicate yourself, this day, to seeking out opportunities to give of yourself.

Pray that you will not miss ANY opportunity where you are needed by God, to give a gift to one of God’s children.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is hatred let me bring your love;
Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord
And where there’s doubt the true faith in you.

O master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is despair in life let me bring hope,
Where there is darkness only light
And where there’s sadness ever joy.

O master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
In giving to all men that we receive
And in dying that we are born to eternal life.

(Prayer of St Francis of Assisi)

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I will never miss an opportunity to give of myself.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “We are all born for love. It is the principle of existence and it’s only end.”
Benjamin Israeli
