Sabbath Keeping

"Blessed is he that considereth the poor; 
the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.

The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; 
and he shall be blessed upon the earth: 

and thou wilt not deliver him until the will of his enemies."

~ Psalms 41:1,2 ~

"It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving." 
~ Mother Teresa ~
"A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog." ~ Jack London ~
"When we give cheerfully and accept gratefully, everyone is blessed." ~ Maya Angelou ~

"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. 

For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. 

People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, 
revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. 

Remember if you ever need a helping hand, 
you will find one at the end of each of your arms.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, 
one for helping yourself

and the other for helping others."

~ Sam Levenson ~ 

"No one has ever become poor by giving." ~ Anne Frank ~
"You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you." ~ John Bunyan ~
"I care not for a man's religion whose dogs and cat are not the better for it." 
~ Abe Lincoln ~
"Charity, if you have the means, is a personal choice, but charity which is expected or compelled is simply a polite word for slavery." 
~ Terry Goodkind, The Pillars of Creation ~
"If you're in the luckiest one percent of humanity, you owe to the rest of humanity to think about the other 99 per cent." ~ Warren Buffet ~

"What I spent, I had; 

what I saved, I lost; 

what I gave, I have."

~ proverb ~

"Doing nothing for others is the undoing of ourselves." ~ Horace Mann ~

"Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again."

~ Luke 6:38 ~
