The more you give the more you receive Date: April 19, 2022 Hello writers and readers, how are you? We have a sunny and hot afternoon right here. It seems that I want something cold to eat or drink. An ice cream? How i wish. A halo halo, please give me some. A buko salad? Oh! I'm craving. Hmm I think I stop my imagination and start writing about this topic that came up in my mind.
Giving is an action that I think everyone can do. Everyone is able to give in different aspects, in different forms, in different quality, in different quantity. Giving is not measured in quantity but in quality. Someone could give a lot but for him it is just a little. On the other hand, someone could give a little but for him it is almost his everything. Giving is not only in the form of money but also in the form of goods and services. You can give some money, food, things, knowledge and even your time and efforts. **In giving you don't lose anything instead you gain something.** Do you believe it? That in giving you don't lose anything but instead you gain something. For me, I do believe it. What you gain when giving? Satisfaction Joy Blessings Satisfaction Have you noticed that everytime you give, you felt the feeling of satisfaction. You are satisfied that in that particular day or time you were able to help someone who is in need. Joy Joy is a feeling of having great happiness. You will be happy seeing someone who is happy in receiving some gifts. You will be happy knowing that someone learns something from you. You will be happy that you were able to give a part of your time listening to someone who is down. Having joy in our hearts for doing something is immeasurable and cannot be bought by any silver nor gold. Blessing In giving, you are surely be blessed. God is the only source of every blessings. He can shower blessings that there is no room enough to receive it. He is the one who gave people with riches, health, knowledge and wisdom. In doing so, He also expects us to be His channel of blessings to others. He is happy and willing to bless people who knows how to bless others too. **God loves the cheerful giver.** In giving, God will also bless you through people that surround you. The more you give the more you receive Do you believe this? The more you give the more you receive. Though, when giving you are not expecting any return but God works in a mysterious ways. Again, God will bless those people who knows how to share his blessings to others. I remember a lot that when I gave, unexpectedly I also received. I gave one lemon to our neighbor who is sick and have cough. After an hour, she gave a gift to my son, a water bottle. My son is so happy about it. I offer some herbal coffee to our neighbor that might could help her because she is suffering from dysmenorrhea. She offer to list my name to recieve some blessings from the government. My son gave some mangoes to our churchmate, after a week we also received a lot of avocados. I gave some clothes (clothes of my son na hindi na magkasya) to my brother in law for his son. Unexpectedly, within a month my son received shoes from our churchmate and clothes from our God mother (ninang). We offer a free ride in our tricycle to a family who go to church. The mother knows how to sew. I let her sew some pillow case and pay for her efforts but she refuse to receive it. We gave some cooked vegetables to our roommates and they gave some biscuits for our son. Sometimes, they also bring pasalubong for our son. Closing thoughts Count your blessings and you'll find out that you were blessed as you blessed others. Sometimes, we didn't noticed it but ***the more we give the more we receive.*** **Learn to give as much as you can. In giving you will be satisfied, happy and blessed.** For sure upon reading, you are realizing that yes, it's true that the more you give the more you receive.

Giving is sharing as well as caring for others. May the Lord God bless you more sis for being a cheerful giver:)
May God bless you too to give something to someone.
favorite line nako na sis .Ky I truly believe in that saying. especially giving without expecting in return.yes giving makes us feel happy
Lagi sis labi na kanang mag community service, manghatag sa mga less fortunate, usahay mura ka ug makahilak sa kalipay
yes sis kalipay nga bisan sa gamay nga paagi nakahatag ka
Mao bitaw sis bahala gamay, dako na kaayo na para sa nagdawat
mao gyud sis
You are right Jen, we shouldn't expect to receive when we aren't giving. Beautiful piece. Indeed we gain when we give.
Yes, thats why we have to continue or start giving.
This is sensible! I think you probably stated what benefits can we received if we tend to give than receive. It's pretty amazing when we give wholeheartedly to other people cause it makes us bless and abundant in life.
Yes giving wholeheartedly makes our creator happy too.
That's the thing that we can give to our creator.
There is a common saying that *givers never lack*
I also believe on that because God will bless the givers..
i learn from my parents that is if you are givers than you are the most happiest person in this world.
That's right. The happiness felt in giving is incomparable.
Yes Jen, when we do not hold tight unto something, when we open our hands out to give unto others, more would come to us.
Yes we need to empty our cup so water can still be added unto it.
This is interesting. Givers tend to earn so much more than what they have given their wives
On giving, mostly we don't realize that the blessing we received in giving is far more than what we gave. So lets make giving a habit.
I am giver I love to give yet I don't have any things to give so I give only presence, love and care or anything that doesn't involve about money. HAHA
Yes giving is not just about money, but your presence, time, effort and even your talent and skills
It's true! The more you give the more you receive. Or it's better to give than to receive. Giving has a lot of forms, it could be financially, emotionally, and physically.
Tama ka dyan sis kaya give if you have something to give
