Charity, Part I

Charity is for the giver not the receiver!

I know you may think this is a perverse statement but it is the truth. What happens when you give to another in need? Is their true need resolved through your gift? Is their life any different? Have you saved the planet or the whales? No!

There may be a moment of respite or an unusual treat. Perhaps the rent gets paid this month or they can feed their family a few more days…. but what happens to the giver?

The frequency of the giver has moved into the field that affirms they have more than enough…so much in fact, they can afford to share. This is the energy of abundance…the field of generosity.

What happens when you are in the field of generosity?

You express the energy of the ‘gentry,’ the upper classes of Europe. You are claiming that you have more than enough and, as you give, you set up a dynamic that allows for greater receiving. The more you give, the more you receive is a true statement because it is an expression of flow.

If you don’t want the world to be stringy with you, don’t be stringy with others. Now this doesn’t mean that I am suggesting you dash out and start giving away your possessions. It means that from now on, you may consider the benefits of sharing a little of what you have with others. Try this for your own sake so you can enjoy the feeling of giving and develop your sense of personal abundance. This doesn’t mean that you will give to others in order to control them…or save them so they will love you. They never will. They can’t from their point of powerlessness. Remember, to be able to love another, you must first be able to love yourself.

Successful giving needs to be executed with no strings attached.

A generous spirit wants for nothing because it is aligned with the field of successful abundance through Divine Right Order. If you would like to play with these ideas you can kill two birds with one stone by clearing out your clutter, allowing for more flow, inviting your friends over and asking them to choose their favorite piece for themselves. What remains send to Good Will or simply leave it in an area where it may become treasured by others.

Are you generous? Do you feel abundant? More on this tomorrow…

YES, YES, YES to giving and sharing. I came back from Shankari's course in Hawaii committed to giving away the excess clothes and possessions that have accumulated in my house for years.

This included "skinny clothes" that I hadn't been able to fit into for a long time!!

I decided to accpt my curvy female body as it is and give the "skinny clothes" away. I put out a message to all my friends to come & choose what they wanted for themselves and their teenage kids.

Everyone loved the clothes, my house is tidier, and I'm making new friends and receiving new "gifts from the Universe" every day. I feel truly blessed.

Try it yourself, youll be amazed at the results. Deb
