Giving frees us from the familiar territory of our own needs by opening our mind to the unexplained worlds occupied by the needs of others."
Give- Pay, contribute, donate, produce, yield, bestow,
Each action is desired and most accepted.
The return of positive expressions is very well desired.
The respect of feelings is shown through verbal gratitude,
is a great way to show a heart of love and attention.
"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
Does God really give us the answer, or does he enlighten our eyes or and quicken our minds and hearts to help us choose to make the right decision. That would still be called our choice.
You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.
"Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Before you retire, save.
Before you blame, research. Before you speak, listen. Before you die, give. Before you answer, study. Before you judge, check yourself.”
Do not be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.
It is rare indeed that people give. Most people guard and keep; they suppose that it is they themselves and what they identify with themselves that they are guarding and keeping, whereas what they are actually guarding and keeping is their system of reality and what they assume themselves to be.
God’s greatest gift was shown through the gift of His Son, and through His Spirit.
All God desires in return is our lives through love and submission.
We make a living from what we receive; we make a life by what we give.
“Happiness is not so much in having or sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

Comfort Zone
A dream is your creative or developed vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown.
Spiritual outlook for the future is movement and not being stagnant.
If you put yourself in a position where you have to stretch outside your comfort zone, then you are forced to expand your consciousness.
We tend to be held back from our goals by the simplicity of our comfort zones, but just how comfortable are we? Would we not be more content living in our dreams?
My experience is that you cannot have everything you want but you can anything you really want, you just need to decide what it is and then plan your exit from the comfort zone.
If you do not step out of your comfort zone and face your fears, the number of situations that make you uncomfortable will keep growing.
If you're in a comfort zone, afraid to venture out, remember that all winners were at one time filled with doubt.
Christ coming down from Heaven was a venture.
What really did Christ think?
Being spirit-led was and is the way we are shown by Christ.
The point is to stop letting fear make your decisions and start making them yourself. It will take some time to get used to this new way of thinking, but before long you will automatically begin questioning your fear and stop letting it control you. Once that happens, there is no telling the levels of success and happiness you can reach!
Another reason is that people are not ready for change in their lives. They would prefer to stay where they are in life and just hope that something grand comes their way in the very near future. If that sounds like you, then you are in for an unknown wait. Life does not wait for anyone, but spiritually you need to increase and grow and move on.
Being successful in life will require you to make some adjustments, permanent changes, and have the ability to remain steadfast and persistent while stepping out of your comfort zone.
Moving 2,000 miles across the country was definitely a test of faith.
The Children of Israel desired to go back to captivity rather than using faith and desiring God’s will.
Again, the way to shift through a fear is to feel the fear and take action anyway. To expand past the comfort zone, one is to come to a place of acceptance that the anxiety is just a natural stage and to take action in faith and love even if the fear and anxiety are there. For fear and anxiety are illusions of consciousness. To fear is to be free from ever being where love is present. Meditation, being centered within in continued faith will ease this anxiety to where eventually you will see there was nothing to fear. We create conflict when we are scared to grow and change.
Why are minds scared to change? Because we often feel that we are unable to be strong enough to cope with greater responsibilities? We believe in illusions such as that we are low in self-esteem and self-love and therefore punish our souls because we feel we are unworthy. The universal truth is that we are scared to change because we believe we are unworthy of Love. We think, "Who am I to be more spiritual?"
My Grandfather was truly one to watch a daily regiment of healthy food intake.
Throughout his life he spent time studying how to treat your body through natural nutrition.
He always referred to the nutrients of God’s creation; all the natural ingredients that were placed upon this planet are for our enjoyment and good pleasure.
God’s assistance to man’s knowledge to medicine was another thought of my Grandfather's.
But even with the understanding of holistic health, other procedures may be necessary. My Grandfather tried His best to treat physical conditions himself on many occasions.
In one case in His life, He was having difficulties with His gallbladder.
A continual treatment of herbs and supplements was tried, but eventually an emergency procedure was needed.
Even though He had faith in God and in His own knowledge in holistic ingredients, they still did not provide the necessary needs for His gallbladder difficulties, which then lead to an emergency surgery.
A removal of his gallbladder was critical after the natural frenzy took place.
Even with the understanding of God’s healing power and experiences, he allowed this procedure to take place out of necessity.
My Grandfather had to remove Himself from His natural comfort Zone of lifestyle for His problem to be resolved. God gives man the ability to be able to control his life through diet and exercise.
In regards to God’s creations of all natural substances, we must expand our knowledge and faith in more than just what is natural.
God did give man the knowledge to create more within our own thoughts and resources.
Nutrition is crucial for overall well-being and health. A balanced diet helps the body function properly and build a defense against harmful diseases and conditions. Lack of nutrients hurts the body internally and affects the body externally.
Food provides the energy and essential nutrients for your body. carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals, trace elements, and vitamins. The correct balance is very important in preventing the development of diseases, some of which are life-threatening. A diet consisting of essential nerve-building vitamins, blood-building minerals, gland-stimulating protein, and hormone-nourishing unsaturated fatty acids will give you good nutritional health.
Some of the benefits of eating good food improved intelligence, memory and mood, increased energy and resistance to stress, achieving peak physical performance, turning back the clock, fighting infections naturally, detoxing your body, defeating allergies, reducing fat, etc. The healthier you are, the better you can resist illness and disease. A mineral-rich diet helps condition you for optimum health, and a shortage of just one mineral can disrupt the harmony and balance of your system.
Not every dietary supplement or routine is for everyone. There are ones that need to watch their blood sugar levels. Some need a strong balance of protein for assisting muscle growth.
In many cases there may be a need for calcium increase through dairy products.
Overall, the need to follow a guideline will assist ones own lifespan.
In the case of spiritual well-being, spiritual nutrients are necessity.
Just like a newborn infant, the mother’s nutrients are needed.
Her natural milk is a must, 1 Pet. 2:2
Spiritual water is a must for growth.
As maturity and spiritual growth increases, strong meat and protein is a must.
As the child increases in growth from toddler into adulthood, parents can lay a foundation of a nutritious diet.
As they turn into teenagers, then to full development, it will be up to each one to make the choice to follow a dietary nutritional lifestyle.
And as adulthood arrives, a continual diet and exercise routines are needed to maintain a healthy and an optimistic healthy life.
