The good I do for others circulates back to bless me.
When I am caring for another person, I am aware that I am caring for a sacred creation of God. Whether as a parent or spouse, grandparent or guardian, health caregiver or teacher, I am nurturing others and helping to shape their lives.
I honor God's creativity as I honor people—children or adults—by caring about and for them. I do whatever I can to bring greater comfort, healing, and understanding to those who need tender, loving attention.
According to the law of giving and receiving, the good I do for others goes full circle and comes back to bless me. It may manifest in unexpected ways and from different people, yet it does appear naturally as I care about and for God's creations.
"He went to him and bandaged his wounds, having poured oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him."-Luke 10:34
