To truly live a fulfilling life, we all need to GET help, but we all need to GO help also. One of the greatest ways to lift our own spirits, to get out of our own little pity parties and to have a sense that life is good, no matter what is happening around us, is to simply go help someone else in need. Lord knows there are countless opportunities for us to do that, in every era we are living in especially now. Sadly, we are usually so consumed with thinking about ourselves that, whatever challenges we are experiencing, are only amplified and become overwhelming for us. But when we help others, our own problems grow dim and become so much more manageable.
I love the saying, “When you help someone up a ladder, you are that much higher yourself.” Remember, we were created for upward and outward, so whatever we do to glorify God and honor others will naturally lead to that Abundant Life we all desire. The moment we turn our thoughts, emotions and desires towards the good of others, is the very moment we feel greatly blessed. We are sowing good seeds, and reaping a great harvest.
