Deeds
Do good deeds whenever you can. When you are in a position to do a good deed, it means that you are better off than the other person. Show your gratitude by lending a hand, or by sharing what you have. A good deed is never lost. So, when there is an opportunity to do a good deed, do it.
Our deeds should be out of empathy, compassion, and of our free will. We should not do deeds in the hope that we will be repaid – although we will be, in some way unknown to us. It is the Law of Nature. But if we start out in the hope of expecting some returns from the deed, then the intent is wrong, there will be no merit in the deed.
It is only our deeds that reveal who we are. - Carl Jung
Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase our good deeds. - The Buddha
Our worth is determined by the good deeds we do, rather than by the fine emotions we feel. - Unknown
Small deeds done are better than big deeds planned. - Peter Marshall
The deeds you do today may be the only sermon some people will hear today. - Saint Francis of Assisi
It would be good to bear in mind that our deeds follow us. Good deeds will bear good fruits and evil deeds will bear bitter fruits. We will reap what we sow – surely. Maybe not immediately, but rest assured the fruits of our deeds will find their way back to us one day – when we least expected it.
With every deed you are sowing a seed, though the harvest you may not see. - Ella Wilcox
Let a man avoid evil deeds as a man who loves life avoids poison. - The Buddha
Neither in the sky nor in mid-ocean, nor in entering a mountain cave, is found the place, where abiding one may escape the consequences of an evil deed. - Unknown

Great post! This is something that we need to be reminded of on a regular basis. It doesn't take a very big good deed to make a huge difference in someone's life. The small deeds don't cost us anything, and they spread love in the world. And we need more love in the world! Thank you for this wonderful collection.
Thank you @goat-girlz. I am pleased to know that this post on Deeds resonates with you.
Howdy sir Vincent! this is also one of God's Law's, the Law of Reciprocity, one of His foundational laws.
"God is not mocked, for whatever a man soweth that he shall also reap."
I know, no one cares but I couldn't resist throwing that in there because all wisdom you see online, all wisdom I see on your quotes are universal truths from the Bible or laws of God as in this case. lol. But I never say anything. No wisdom is new, it's all been given to us by God thousands of years ago.
