Learn to share you gifts

Many times we lose sight of the many blessings we all have to be grateful for. We remain insatiable and always in search of more. Life has been given to us for a purpose. We cannot possess all we want. That is why we need one another to complete the things we do not have. Sharing is an act of giving freely and willing the gifts we have to those who have little. Oftentimes we come across couples who are richly blessed with wealth but are childless, some may be poor but are gifted with health and intelligence. The poor and the needy in our society are gifts of God to humanity; without the poor in our midst, we cannot make a difference in the lives of people. We can never pay back in gratitude to God for all the blessings we received without being generous to others. We do not lose anything by sharing our gifts with those who need them. Why not give it a try?
