Lesson for today.

"There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving." - Acts 20:35

We all like to be happy, don’t we?— But not many people really are. Do you know why?— It is because they have not learned the secret of happiness. They think that getting a lot of things is the way to be happy. But when they get these things, their happiness does not last. The Bible says that God “gives to all persons life and breath and all things.” He gives us rains from heaven and the sunshine too, so that plants grow and we have food to eat. No wonder the Bible calls Jehovah “the happy God”! Giving to others is one of the things that make God happy. And when we give, it can make us happy too. 

Now, what is there that we can give to other people? What would you say?— Sometimes a gift costs money. If it is a gift that you get at a store, you will have to pay for it. So if you want to give that kind of gift, you may have to save money until you have enough to buy the gift. But not all gifts have to come from stores. For example, on a hot day, a glass of cold water really tastes good. So when you give that gift to a person who is thirsty, you can have the happiness that comes from giving. There are many ways in which we can give. Can you think of some?— If we give because we really want to, we will be happy. That is why the Great Teacher tells us: “Practice giving.” (Luke 6:38)

If we do, we will be making other people happy. And we will be the happiest of all! 😊

Thank you for reading, see you for the next lesson. 😊

Giving makes me happy and that's what Jesus taught. - Caleb 😊

The importance of giving.

Well, yes, but, do not be fooled. There is a lot of ego involved in that happiness. Part of us simply feel superior, more powerful, when we help somebody else.
