I should receive joyfully and gratefully from others
For when they sow seeds of kindness into my life
They receive abundant blessings from God.
If I deny them from giving I circumvent the harvest.
When I open my hands and give generously to others
God opens His hands, much bigger hands than mine
Pours His blessings into my lap; my life
A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over.
I must keep on receiving but also sowing, giving to those in need
God gives bountiful harvests when I don’t hoard seed.
