Why Volunteering Is Essential For Fulfilling Christian Goals

Did you know that giving to charity can assist you with any goal have?

I know it sounds odd. But let us take a close look at this verse.

“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” (Luke 6 38)

This beautifully encapsulates the essence of giving.

When you give, you receive. God blesses you for your good decisions.

He assists you in the areas that you need assistance.

If you want loving and fulfilling relationships, He will support you.

If you want personal growth and development, He will support you.

And if you want to step away from work early and spend time with your grandchildren, He will support you with that goal as well.

However, some folks hesitate to give to charity because they cannot afford it.

And that is understandable. Especially with everything that’s going on lately.

But charitable giving doesn’t simply mean helping others financially.

There are endless ways to support the less fortunate.

One of the most impactful ways you can give is by donating your time, skills, and compassion through volunteering.

By dedicating your hours to serve others in need, you become a living testament of God’s love and kindness.

Proverbs 11:25 says “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”

Volunteering allows us to enrich our own experiences as we enrich the experiences of others.

It unlocks doors for personal growth and the development of meaningful relationships.

It even shows us different perspectives that can bring about a greater appreciation of our own circumstances.

You can volunteer in various capacities.

Perhaps tutoring children in your community, assisting in local food banks, participating in community clean-up drives, or even providing companionship to the elderly.

Each deed of service, no matter how small, brings you closer to God.

Remember, it’s not always about what you give, but about the heart and the intent behind it.

As we follow Jesus’ footsteps in service to others, we inch closer to His teachings and invite abundant blessings into our own journeys.

So let us embrace charitable giving. In any way we can.

God Bless
