November First Word of the First Week 2023

Give: Freely transfer the possession of something to someone. Hand over to. Cause or allow someone or something to have something, especially something abstract. Provide or supply with. Capacity to bend or alter in shape under pressure; elasticity. (Oxford Dictionary)

Do you give freely, or do you expect in return? Why are you this way?

This week, give something to someone freely without expectation. Give until this expectation leaves your heart. This giving can be simple things while you are at work, home, or in the community.

How can you alter your expectations this week and shape them into a more Christlike quality?

At the end of the week, write down how many times it took to give without feeling that expectation in return. Do you like this new feeling? How can you continue to implement this feeling in your life each time you give?

Make this a habit.
