Scatter and Increase

At a Prize Giving Day with some kids from THE GOOD SHERPARD ORPHANAGE


While so many poor neighbors are around us, it is a sin to hoard. If we do, we shall be losers, for rats eat corn, rust cankers metal, and the curse of God spoils riches. A tight fist is most likely to get the rheumatism, an open hand surely bears the palm.
It is good to give a part to sweeten the rest.
John Bunyan said,
“There was a man, and some did count him mad,
The more he gave away, the more he had.”

I say to you, “Give and spend, And God will send.”
Generous souls are made happy by the happiness of others: the money that they give to the poor buys them more pleasure than any other that they lay out.
What say you, Mr. Reader, to cut a few dollars out of your heap, and send them to help feed the orphans??????????
