"Speak up for the people who have no voice,
for the rights of all the down-and-outers. Speak out for justice! Stand up for
the poor and destitute!"
Proverbs 31:8-9 (The Message)
Proverbs 31:8-9 (The Message)
Nothing has such a positive impact on a person as
giving to others. And people who have a giving spirit are some of the most
positive people I know. That's because giving is the highest level of living.
They focus their time and energy on what they can give to others rather than
what they can get from them. And the more a person gives, the better his
attitude.
Most unsuccessful people don't understand this
concept. They believe that how much people give and their attitude about it are
based on how much they have. But that's not true. I know many people who have
very little but are tremendous givers. And I know people who have been blessed
with money, good families, and wonderful careers who are stingy and suspicious
of others.
In life, it's not what you have that makes a
difference. It's what you do with what you have. And that is based completely
on attitude.
