Art of Giving

I give from the Christ of my Being.

When I think of giving as an art--a creative expression of my Christ Light--I pour more of myself into giving. I tune in to ways I can support others and give meaningful gifts that will delight the receiver.

Divine ideas come to mind as I shift my focus away from "things" to the art of true giving. As I write a letter to a friend with whom I've lost contact or give an encouraging smile to a struggling stranger, I know that just what is needed is mine to give. I am inspired to give more as new creative expressions of giving come to mind. Knowing that the circle of giving is also receiving, I am grateful for all that I give and all that I receive.

Your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of everyone of you for one another is increasing.–2 Thessalonians 1:3
