Grasping
by PamFord Davis "One person gives freely, yet gains more; another withholds what is right, only to become poor. A generous person will be enriched, and the one who gives a drink of water will receive water (Proverbs 11:24-25 HCS)." I remember the pride I felt when our newborn children first grasped my finger. Soon, they progressed to grasping rattles or mobiles in their cribs. The latest achievements were memorable and I wrote them in their baby books. When as an adult, I grasp material objects; I sin and withhold blessings from the needy. If I give generously my life is richer. " it is necessary to help the weak and to keep in mind the words of the Lord Jesus, for He said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive (Acts 20:35b HCS)."
