Quote of the day:

“The measure of a life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation." – Corrie ten Boom

Consider:

Corrie ten Boom’s story is a triumphant one. A young woman imprisoned by the Nazi’s in WW II for helping Jew’s to escape. Corrie was put in a concentration camp and endured extreme cruel conditions that would have killed most people, yet in the midst of that great adversity something clicked within her spirit which caused her to shine with brilliant love to pour out comfort and hope to her fellow prisoners. Years later when released, Corrie’s life blossomed even further in a continual ministry of reconciliation and healing post WW II. She gave above and beyond to others during her life on earth, even through the worst circumstances.

Do you spend more time thinking about how you can get more for yourself than you do thinking about what you can do for others? Try taking 10 minutes today and write down five ways in which you can give, to help  enrich others lives and bring them hope. Remember, your giving needn’t be through giving material things alone, it could be through little acts of love and kindness that go a long, long way to make someone’s day.

Happy giving,

Coach Dana
