Mirror Relfections

'How we treat other people can have a great impact on the degree of blessings and favor of God we are experiencing in our lives.

'Are you good to people? Are you kind and considerate? Do you speak and act with love in your heart and regard other people as valuable and spe­cial?

'Friend, you can’t treat people poorly and expect to be blessed. You can’t be rude and inconsiderate and expect to live in victory.'

Joel Osteen

Welcome to the truth!

I came across the above when I read http://whiskofee.blogspot.com and I pondered over the above quotes.

Well said, Joel Osteen. When God created people, and lumped them altogether, He knew that they would have to live together. Hence, He would pour His blessings on those who love others as they love themselves.

We should all learn to be like the Sea of Galilee.... constantly giving out and receiving from a higher source. This is why the Sea of Galilee is teeming with abundant life.... full of fishes for the fishermen to catch. In sharp contrast, the Dead Sea is really dead and nothing can live in it. No one can drown in the Dead Sea because he can only float! The Dead Sea does not flow out... it only recieves and keeps on receiving.

Let us continue to give to others so that we can remain fresh, alive and abundant.
Let us continue to give to others so that we have more room to receive. As my wonderful papa loved to say, "I let others dig into my pockets, while I put my hands into God's huge pockets of blessings".

Now you can understand why although papa was a humble school teacher, his five children never felt poor or deprived.
