receive and give

I promised that if you seek you would find, if you knock the door would be opened, if you asked you would receive. Yet even this magnificent open-ended promise does not complete the picture. How many people did I minister to and then tell them to go and tell others all that I had done for them? This is the rest of the story. Receive and give. Seek that you may receive, and then seek that you may pass on what you receive. Do not think of yourself as a reservoir but rather as a flowing channel of life. The good news of the Kingdom is not meant for you to keep to yourself. I give you living fire. Let your light shine before men that they may glorify me.
