Making the Sunset Yours....

Boothbay Harbor Sunset

More blessed to give than receive.....



How do you say 'thank you' for sunshine or health... for clear days or gentle rains... for happiness, joy or love? 

You say it by sharing what you have. You say it by making the world a better place in which to live.  
                               Thomas D. Willhite, 1940-1983














I just wonder...

I have gone out and breathed in the sunrises, the sunsets, and the glory of the day. But why is it that feels even more peaceful to me after sharing it with others?  Perhaps that is what is behind Jesus' statement that it is more blessed to give than to receive.  He's not diminishing the receiving of a gift. Not at all!  How could he since we receive those gives from the principle Giver--God?  There is a much deeper thought here.  It is in giving that we ultimately receive what God wishes to give us.  Pass on the sunset and it becomes yours in a whole new way.
