You don’t want to believe what Jesus and James and Paul and Proverbs say about serving other people, helping them, mentoring them, volunteering at the soup kitchen?
Teams of psychologists have studied people’s actions. Real life. Just like you and me.
They’ve found that volunteering, performing acts of service for others, yes, even when teenagers are forced into it by parents, leads to happiness.
It’s true. It works. Wisdom written 4,000 years ago and 2,000 years ago—all true.
Sometimes you must perform works of mercy and service to bring your heart around to the right direction. Better is to change the direction of your heart to where performing these acts, small and large, is simply a part of your life.
As Paul says in Galatians among other places against such works there is no law.
Be kind. If you get something from these meditations, share with a friend. If not, share with an enemy. 🙂
