GRATITUDE
Nothing new can come to us until we are grateful for what we already have. When we give, we receive in like kind. But let us understand that it is not WHAT we give, rather HOW we give, that deems what we receive through the law of giving.
If we give with a feeling of “obligation”, we resonate a feeling that will attract to us more experiences of “obligation”. Instead, if we give with joy in our hearts, with gratitude for the opportunity to give, no matter how our gift is being received, then in this spirit, we resonate gratitude and joy. In return, we receive so much more than the material value of what we have given!
A $10 gift does not create a $10 value from the Universe. A $100 gift does not deem a $100 reward from the Universe. In the eyes of the world, the larger the material gift, the “more generous” the gift is perceived, but not by the Universe. What is generosity? It is not value of the gift, rather it is the value of the spirit in which the gift was given. We receive according to our spirit of generosity.
Are you generous? Do you give in a spirit of generosity?
When we give in the right spirit, our own energy is continuously refreshed to give even more. When we work willingly, we are surcharged with Divine energy and can accomplish anything! On the contrary, when we do any task with an unwillingness, our energy is depleted, right from the beginning. Have you ever felt fatigued after giving? Ready to give up rather than give more? If we ever feel depleted after giving, it means we have not given in the right spirit. It is not WHAT we give, rather HOW we give.
To give in the right spirit, we must give, and then give some more. Leave it up to the Universe to decide the source through which you will receive anything in return. Often it is not from the place we give, that we receive.
Nothing goes un-noticed in the Universe. When you give, it is etched in ether, already creating a reciprocal gift for you to receive, based on your intention.
