By giving love, we feel love and receive. I want to go and check out your blog, but now have to get ready for church. Will do so later.<br /><br />Take care.<br />marjamarjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01810913152746930742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-57422248663934824332010-01-03T08:36:38.807-08:002010-01-03T08:36:38.807-08:00Never commented here before, but your question pro...Never commented here before, but your question prompts a response. At this moment, I find the most meaning by contemplating creation, remembering the principles of universal love and cosmic unity, and writing about them. Ten years ago a series of spiritual 'peak' experiences came to me, and for a while I worked hard to tell others about what I'd seen. Then I shut up, and forgot the peace that came from both the knowledge and the act of spreading it. In the past month it's all been coming back to me. I've been writing m 'revelations' on my blog in hopes my words will help others. On the one hand it's an inward act, and on the other it's my attempt to give succor. In the end, like you say, fulfillment comes from giving. We each give in different was at different times. And like you, I see that posting positive thoughts and images is more helpful than venting frustration and negative feelings. Thanks for prompting me to look at how what I'm doing today brings meaning to my life.WillSpirithttp://willspirit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-24434576337337961482010-01-02T14:22:38.772-08:002010-01-02T14:22:38.772-08:00Laura,

I too feel at my best when I'm doing things for other people and for the Lord. <br /><br />Recently, the Lord reminded me of Matthew 16:25 "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it." I found that when I try to avoid the troubles and inconveniences of serving Him and others, and just focus on living my own life, my life became meaningless.<br /><br />But when I give of myself wholeheartedly to serve Him and others, my life becomes very meaningful daily. It gives me a reason to wake up - or should I say jump out of bed daily! Thank God for giving us the joy of walking with Him and extending His love and kindness to others in need. May this new year continue to be a very fruitful and meaningful one for you as you share God's love and kindness with others!<br /><br />Love,<br />NancieNanciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08098102116087099990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-71673898607740411812009-12-31T13:10:07.243-08:002009-12-31T13:10:07.243-08:00Merelyme.

Of all the images you posted...the woman and the two crosses...that was my favorite...I felt it deeply. It doesn't have to be all happy stuff all the time. <br /><br />I really like the way you are expressing yourself and I hope you keep doing it...don't second guess yourself. Let it all out.<br /><br />And thank you for all your support and comments to my site...I love when you stop by to share.Synchronicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07631238942909923311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-40858995791806124222009-12-31T11:28:58.114-08:002009-12-31T11:28:58.114-08:00One day last week I was feeling really down.

The Pastor picked up my husband,son and me, and we went around to people's homes in the community and gave them a loaf of bread and wished them a Merry Christmas from our Church. By the end of the outing, I was feeling A LOT better! I love giving - I do it more for me than for the other person! :)Spin Originalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16769804411066739736noreply@blogger.com
