A gift opens doors for a man and brings him before the great. Proverbs 18:16
When I first read this Proverb, I had an uneasy feeling. The thought of giving, in expectation of receiving---made me feel uncomfortable. If I give a gift, I hate to think that I am waiting to recieve something in return. May I never give, in order to recieve an audience or be granted favor!
I reflected on Solomon and what this nugget of Wisdom might mean for me today. I pray that my day is a blessing to others, that somehow--someway, I can stop thinking about me long enough to love on someone else. To touch, to linger, to see and to express compassion. When I give THIS gift, I am granted an audience with the name above all names and, I hope, bring a smile to the face of my Jesus.
