“And don’t forget to do good and to share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God.” Hebrews 13:16 (NLT)
Inspire others by doing good and sharing
The bible instructs us to do good for others. Of course, this doesn’t get us into heaven but this verse in Hebrews says it pleases God. I have been blessed to be on the receiving end countless times when others did something good for me. Some of the ways I was blessed, were small ways and others were in tremendous ways. Either way, it was a blessing and all of the “good” made an impact on me. It taught me to put others before myself and to share what I have, whether it is my time or something monetary, with others who need it.
JOY!
Doing good taught me about a three-letter word that is the icing on the cake when doing good things for others. Joy! Joy is one of the most delightful emotions, and we can experience joy anytime we do good things for other people. Paying for someone’s lunch in the drive-thru, helping someone clean up after a storm, covering someone’s work duty, paying someone’s water bill, sponsoring a family for Christmas, and the list could continue. We should never expect anything in return. Doing good comes back to you.
Share! You will receive
“Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.” Luke 6:38 (NLT)
So today, let the doing good inspire and motivate you with the joy it brings you.
