Give and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over.

The first thing that you need to do if you want to receive something good is to give an abundance of something good. At first glance or thought the law of giving and receiving gives the impression that it is a two-way law. You may believe that you should split up your efforts – devote half of your time on giving and half on receiving. That is a figment of your imagination.

In the case of giving and receiving, work with the principle of giving, and the receiving will take care of itself.

In fact the less attention you pay to the receiving side of the equation the more advantage you have in the receiving. The receiving takes care of itself as you function in your giving.

Are You Giving Full Value?
For the law of Compensation to be fully present in your life you must be willing to give full value. Giving plus love equals receiving plus love. No longer must you focus on the possession of the rich, walk in envy and withhold what you are capable of giving.

It is very important to know that you do not give with the idea that you are bestowing charity because everything belongs to God and all his children are equally entitled to his bounteous goodness. It is not a crime to be rich and it is not a virtue to be poor, as many of you have been taught to believe. There must be no hoarding or thoughts of scarcity. These things impede your ability to give full value. Allow your service to circulate and as you do so your wealth will circulate.

“Your consciousness is like a stream of water. If the stream is in any way dammed up, the water settles in all the low places and becomes stagnant. The quickest way to purify and reclaim the low “swampy” places in your consciousness is to let the flood come from above by opening the dam.” Unknown

As you look upon the beautiful streams of water in your life, allow the blessings from above to flow freely in your life.
In the quietness of your heart, daily repudiate the beliefs of greediness and covetousness, and affirm confidently the universal influence of divine justice and love. This is how you give full value first to yourself and then to others.
