There are two kinds of people in this world: givers and takers. It is very likely that the takers eat better, but I am absolutely certain that the givers sleep better! (Someone, Marlo Thomas I think, said that before).
I am so blessed to know many, many givers! I definitely am acquainted with more givers than takers. How wonderful, huh?
In the Acts of the Apostles, Saint Paul tells us to "remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
I would add that being givers is certainly wonderful, but there are times when we have to let others give to us. It is certainly not a bad thing to graciously accept a gift.
