From the Heart
Whatever I give, I do so from my heart.
I
might find myself moved when a child spontaneously gives me a hug.
Likewise, I might be especially overjoyed when a beloved pet greets me
at the door, or when a loved one surprises me with a gift.
We recognize each other on a heart level when we act and speak with open and honest intentions. Reflecting on this, I remember to check my own motives. Am I saying or doing something today just to be polite or because I feel that I should? Is my kindness authentic? Am I expressing compassion to everyone at all times?
Remembering that all I give is given unto me, I choose to give from a pure and open heart.

But the aim of such instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith.—1 Timothy 1:5
