Positively Good Productions

The principle is clear:

We harvest in proportion to our planting.

Let us not even think about 

criticizing another.

Let us think ourselves into another person’s shoes. 

Generous people give both financially and of themselves, 

in a way that benefits the recipient. Their gifts may include

 time, money, things, and encouragement.

Generous people are also able to receive in such a way that

 the giver gains from the interchange. Their actions are 

motivated by the needs of others, and not of themselves.

 Every student, ambassador, and disciple should be

carrying the mission of God into every sphere of life.

Look for ways to be a blessing to somebody. 

Your struggles have prepared you for such a time as this.

Helping others out of LOVE 

is always our best option.

We should not be merely an influence, 

we should be an inspiration.

By our very own presence we should be

 a tower of strength

to the hungering souls around us... 

serving,

even when no one is watching.

Far too often, some have embraced a pronounced 

compassion-exhaustion

among people.

Some are guilty of de-humanizing and de-personalizing 

those who are from different stations in life.

These divisions provide the necessary rationalization

 for destruction.

 They spawn and perpetuate

 classes of lower and undesirables and

make it very possible for great atrocities to take place.

Their positions are based on another's money, 

class, education, upbringing, and basically... 

all of the superficial aspects.

We should cultivate a mentality in which we see ourselves

not as transients residing

 in an ivory tower,

 but as God-fearing souls, 

seeking first the Kingdom of God

 while having this human experience. 

To help the poor is to honor God.

Respect is the most basic social standard, 

from which all other basic social standards can be derived.

Sometimes we get so caught up

in the busyness of life and in ourselves

that we forget that God calls us to lift each other up,

lend a helping hand, a listening ear, 

and a willing shoulder. 

How many different thoughts and judgments

pass through our minds when we look at people?

"Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds 

before men, to be seen by them.

Otherwise you have no reward 

from your Father in Heaven.

Therefore, when you do a charitable deed,

do not sound a trumpet before you

as the hypocrites do

 in the synagogues and in the streets,

that they may have glory from men.

Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

But when you do a charitable deed,

do not let your left hand know 

what your right hand is doing,

 that your charitable deed may be in secret;

and your Father who sees in secret

will Himself reward you openly.

Matthew 6
