28. A PERSON FOR OTHERS

"Give, and it will be given to you.
A good measure, pressed down,
shaken together, running over,
will be put into your lap;
for the measure you give will be the measure you get back."

Lk 6: 38


Our Founder encouraged us to share generously our gifts and talents with others:
"Remember nothing is as demanding as love" and
"Christ says that the more we love the more we give ourselves."


Our gifts are given for others.
We can turn aside from our giftedness
or we can embrace it wholeheartedly
and allow it to overflow
and flood the world.

Lord, help us to realise gifts are given,
not just for ourselves but for others.
Help us to share our gifts for the benefit of others,
so that we may continue Christ's mission.
