Lessons on Giving.

So, the other day, I was opportuned to give someone some money. To me, it was little and I told the person, “Use it to buy coke.” She took and looked at me intently. It was for about five seconds. It was a look of deep appreciation. She smiled and thanked me for it. 

I don’t usually say it when I give to others but I thought to share this one. Apparently, what I thought was ‘little’ money was a lot for her. The way she looked at me was deep. She held my hand for a few seconds. It said something. She probably hadn’t eaten since morning and yet she was doing her work and being diligent about it. Also, she may have prayed that God should send someone to her to help her.

Honestly, I was moved. When you have the opportunity to give to others or God tells you to. Please don’t be hesitant. You just never know. You maybe God’s answers to another person’s prayers. Also, many people are going through hard times. You may think they are not the only ones but the thing is you still have something. Some people don’t have anything. It would amaze you that out of that little, big can come out of it. 

Please don’t hold back when you can give.
