Even A Sinner Will Give If He Thinks He Will Get Something In Return
Give to people without expecting anything, and you will be glad you did. Giving freely will also bring you great satisfaction. Give to causes such as helping to pay for a girl’s education, as she would not have one if you did not help. Give the gift of food to a hungry family by giving it to a food bank or anonymously sending them a gift card. Giving to people should help them see how lucky and blessed you are that you can afford to help out those less fortunate than you are. Always give something useful to people that will help them. If you see someone in need, hand them a surprise gift certificate and tell them that it is a gift from God, which it truly is, as you were blessed that you can do so.
Service Gifts
If someone needs help with their pets, offer to babysit them while they are gone. All pet owners want someone they know and can depend on to care for their pets while away. If someone just had surgery, offer to stay in their home with them and cook and clean for them until they recover from their illness. If someone needs help fixing something, offer to fix it if you can. People who cannot drive or drive long distances love to be offered a ride to go somewhere. Take them to a scenic area, a place to eat, a day trip, a coffee shop, etc. Offer to buy groceries for an older friend as they may not want to walk through a large grocery store and wait in line anymore. If someone needs their furnace serviced and cannot pay the bill, help them pay a portion, depending on your situation.
The Gift Of Listening
People like to talk about problems they may not know how to solve, such as who to hire to cut down their trees or if you know a good carpenter. I tell them who I have hired, that I had good luck with them, and that I would highly recommend them. All of us need good advice that will help us out in life.
Surprise Gifts
I like to ask people what they want in advance, and then I look for that item and give it to them as a surprise gift. I generally like to give a gift on no particular occasion, as that is genuinely a surprise. I love to put a smile on a stranger’s face with a surprise gift or a friend’s. Time spent with people is a wonderful gift, as you can learn a lot from each other, which will take you far in life. Spend time with God; he will lead you on the right path to benefit most people. Love and help out all of God’s children; you will feel wonderful and warm inside, and so will they. Freely give whenever you can.
