People are struggling to receive; give and remain silent.

Good day, good people! This is the day that the Lord has made; never forget that. Regardless of what you face in the morning, afternoon, or evening, this day is a gift to you and me, so let’s cherish it.

Imagine giving someone one million and even forgetting that you gave them that kind of money. The same applies to the love you give, kindness, etc.  However, the problem is that we have made our right hand so close to our left hand that whenever the right hand gives, we want to ensure that the left hand knows.

Matthew 6:3 (ESV): “But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.”

Even if they don’t clap, you are not giving for their applause. It saddens me that people can struggle in church and prefer to seek help from outside rather than reach out to their brothers and sisters within the congregation. I believe it’s because we have created a culture where givers want to be celebrated, and receivers feel ashamed to receive.

Takeaway: Let us learn to give and remain in the unknown. Humble yourself; you give because you have received. And as for us receivers, there’s nothing wrong with needing; it is merely a situation, not your position.

Prayer: Abba, Father, we thank you in Jesus’ name, Ameni!
