Million reasons why you should ask what you Can do to better The World. Helping others brings happiness, but selfishness never can. Happiness doesnât come by getting; it comes by forgetting yourself and living for others. Job, one of the richest men in his day, lost his health, his wealth, and his family. Itâs hard to imagine, right? Then an amazing thing happened: âThe Lord restored Jobâs losses, when he prayed for his friendsâ. Job actually got back twice what he lost. How? By reaching out to others instead of dwelling on his own problems. And that principle still works today. Jesus warned, âTake heed, and beware of covetousness; for a manâs life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possessethâ. God blesses you for one reason: to make you a blessing to others. Youâre not supposed to be a warehouse but a clearinghouse. For every verse in Scripture that promises material success, thereâs another that speaks of the dangers of hoarding. So the word for you today is: helping others brings happiness, but selfishness never can.
