Hello and Welcome to this motivational moment entitled, “Give, Gain, Grow,” with Cynthia O.
MOTIVATION:
Even if you’re well into your adult years, I’ll bet you remember a time during your childhood when your parents made you share something when you didn’t want to. It may have been your favorite snack or your favorite toy. At that time, you felt like sharing would cause you to lose something, or a part of it so that the other person could have what was yours. Now, fast forward to adulthood and a new level of maturity. I’ll bet you feel differently about sharing today. Does it warm your heart? It does mine. One of my greatest joys these days is to brighten someone’s day. I don’t even have to know them. Because I enjoy life, I want to lift other peoples’ spirits; encourage them; and remind them that they’re someone special, too. There are many others who feel the same way. Just when I’m close to losing hope for our society at some of the awful acts that some people commit, I see a story about someone who risked their life to save someone from a burning house or car. Someone may be feeding the hungry. In fact, just the other day, I saw a news story about a couple here in metro Atlanta who operate a mobile shower for the homeless. The husband told the news reporter that he and his wife are trying to restore the impacted individuals’ dignity. That perspective is so powerful and compassionate. You see, we are all dealing with something in life, but many of us now understand that when we take our focus off ourselves and give to others, we don’t lose. We actually gain…a sense of peace, a new perspective on life, a new perspective on our own situation. Then, we grow in character and love. That makes us a better person…more of who God created us to be.
IN CONCLUSION:
Thank you for joining me today. Remember, we could all use a little motivation. So, if this motivational moment has inspired you, share it. Then, wherever you’re watching, subscribe, like it, or leave me a comment. I’d love to hear from you. Be blessed.
