EP 75 - THE LAW OF RECIPROCITY
Ever felt indebted to someone because they did something
nice for you?
Or felt like someone didn’t do something nice for you in
return?
No worries, most of us do or feel that way at time… but
there’s a way to not do that any more.
The law of tithing talks about how we will be blessed by
obeying this law, but it does not say we will get back exactly what we gave,
from the same people we gave to.
It’s more like, we give and we receive. It’s not I give you and you give me… that’s
not how it works.
When it comes to marriages… we almost always want back
what we give from our spouses (“50/50”)… but that’s not how it works here
either. If you’re married you probably know that.
If we ever find ourselves feeling in lack of something,
start giving more. As we give we
receive… often times in just the joy of giving.
But in general when we give, we never know how or when it will come back
to us… but it will. It’s the law.
And reciprocity is not linear… keep that in mind. Give just to give, and give cheerfully.
Ways in which we can give (cheerfully)… think back to
times when someone gave you something you never forgot… that is one way in
which you can also give:
