Unleash The Power of Giving in 2009

By M Taylor

We all know that it is better to give than receive; what we may not really understand is why this is the case. It's simple, really - the more you give of yourself, the more you will receive. When you give freely and unconditionally, success and abundance will be your reward.

An unconditional giver is someone who gives from the heart because they want to, not because they have to, or because they feel obligated to do so.

When you give of your time, energy, resources, knowledge, skills, and/or talents, with no strings attached, you instantaneously set the Law of Giving and Receiving in motion. You become a magnet, attracting success and abundance.

The universal Law of Giving and Receiving is both spiritual and scientific.

The Spiritual basis of The Law of Giving and Receiving: Whatever you sow, you will also reap. -Galatians 6:7

The Scientific basis of The Law of Giving and Receiving: For every action, there will always be an equal or even opposite reaction -Isaac Newton's Law of Motion.

Reasons People Resist Giving: People often decide not to give because they think they do not have enough to give. They think that if they give, they will have nothing left. This type of thinking comes from limited thinking and perceptions of lack and scarcity.

As we see from the spiritual reasoning behind this universal law, you cannot reap what has not been sown.

The scientific basis tells us that we cannot expect a reaction if we have not taken action ourselves.

Some people give because they think they will be left with nothing if they give - but these people will not receive anything, finding themselves stagnant and failing to develop as human beings.

Others will give just a little, again feeling a sense of scarcity - but those who give only a little will get only a little in return.

Still others understand the basis of the law of giving and receiving, but only give with the expectation of getting something in return.

If your reasons for giving are for selfish gain, you will learn the hard way that just as you cannot defy the laws of gravity, you also cannot defy the Law of Giving and Receiving. If your giving is tainted, what you receive will also be tainted.

Start Giving From the Heart: BY incorporating the law of giving and receiving into your life, you will find that you can indeed give of yourself without having to worry about scarcity. This is a liberating feeling of abundance and a great example of the law of giving and receiving in action.

This is nothing short of a spiritual experience. You will begin to feel a kinship with the world around you and develop true empathy with others. This will enable you to truly love others as you love yourself.

You'll be more in tune with the needs of others and this is what will allow you to give freely and unconditionally.

When you give this way, others will be inspired and you'll start off a cycle of giving.

Giving Produces Spiritual and Personal Growth: Giving unconditionally leads to personal development and builds your faith in yourself, those around you and the universe as a whole. For some it is a religious experience, but it is undeniably spiritual.

The more you give, the more you receive. You'll see the benefits, which will include love and joy. - 15437
