Helping you is helping me!
Dr. Virgil Gulker once wrote a little book with the title, "Helping You Is Helping Me.". This premise of helping ourselves as we help others is a fascinating idea. To think that as we work to help those in need we wre also developing a heart of compassion.
I know that often when I am down, as I help someone in need, it lifts my spirit. It helps me to be less self-centered and more concerned about those in need. I am never disappointed when I give of myself. I not only feel better about myself but I also have a greater awareness of my world.
My challenge is to give up something that can help another in need. In doing this I am not giving up as much as I am gaining!
