Acts 20:35 I have shown you in every way, by labouring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’

How many times have you heard people say “it is more blessed to give than to receive” and wondered why?

Christ was not talking about giving presents at Christmas time or Easter eggs or other presents we think of; He was talking about supporting the people who need it most!

Too often we ignore the things going on around us because we are bombarded by news stories which seem more like horror movies than actual news.

Open your heart toward those around who need it most – follow the example given by Jesus.
