The Christmas Holiday is, after all, the season of giving. Jesus came to Earth to give Himself up for us.
Can you ever have enough money? Don’t be fooled. You’ll always want more.
This year, we’re working hard to teach our kids about looking for people in need, then acting on it by giving them what you can.
So imagine my chagrin when after a recent closing I was told by my Broker that another agent says they deserve my commission. At first, I thought “No way, I did the work, I deserve it!”
Then I started to think about how the negative feelings and stress will put a damper on our Holidays. When a comprise was offered, it was pretty easy to go ahead and give back a portion of my pay even though I still believe it rightfully belonged to me.
That was when I remembered, Luke 6:30.
“Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back.”
There will always be more money. How many opportunities do you have to so easily obey your heavenly Father?
