O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled,
as to console,
to be understood,
as to understand,
to be loved,
as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Francis of Assisi

The Lord Jesus Himself said; "It is more blessed to give than to receive."
Acts 20:35 NIV
