“Why I enjoy working from Home” Reason #3 Helping Others

Have you ever heard the expression, “It is better to give than to receive”. What does that really mean? How many times have we watched people in need and walked away? Not because we did not want to help, but merely because of our current circumstance or how we thought the person looked. Maybe we were in too much of a hurry to get home, go to work, get to a social gathering, or just because it is not our problem. The decisions you make today will effect your tomorrow. This is why I enjoy working from home, because it allows me the time to help others, in ways I know they can not repay me.

I strongly believe in “what you sow, so shall you reap.” Sowing is defined as to set something in motion. By sowing a seed of kindness, I shall reap a harvest of kindness. Seeds produce plants and the difference in results is significant. If you sow plenty of seed into your business, you will reap a great harvest. This is just the laws of physics. Your harvest is waiting to unveil itself as a sign of prosperity. This is why I enjoy working from Home.

Here is a short story “Do not withhold Good.”

Mr. Duke recalls when he was a teenager, he and his father once stood in line to buy tickets for the fair. They noticed a poor family immediately in front of them. The dad had his arm around moms neck and mom had her arm around dads waist. They had seven children, all probably under the age of twelve. He could tell that the fair was going to be a new adventure for them. The attendant asked how many tickets they wanted. The man proudly responded, “I’d like to buy tickets for seven children’s and two adult’s.” When the attendant quoted the price, the man’s wife let go of her husbands waist and she looked upset. The man leaned a little closer and asked, “ How much did you say?” The attendant quoted the price again. The man obviously didn’t have the money. He looked crushed. Duke says his father watched all this, put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a fifty dollar bill and dropped it on the ground. His father then reached down, picked up the bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, I think this must be yours.” The man knew exactly what was going on. He looked straight into Duke’s father’s eyes, took his hand, shook it, and with a tear streaming down his cheek, replied, “ Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family.” Duke and his father didn’t have enough money to go to the fair that night, but it didn’t matter. They had blessed a whole family, and it was something neither family would ever forget. That’s called “sowing a great seed”.

Helping others is the reason why I enjoy workind from Home. I work with a community of people. We are all working together to make a difference in the world, our business and home lifestyles. Working from home as my own boss I wake up early in the morning to spend time with my Lord. This way as I work throughout the morning I am inspired. Looking forward to the evening of where I can plant a great seed of prosperity. “Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, When it is in the power of thin hand to do it.” Proverbs 3:27.
