PROVERBS 11:24-25…

.

One person gives freely, yet gains even more;
another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.

A generous person will prosper;
whoever refreshes others will be refreshed..

St. Peter Fourier…

.

"In order to gain a lot we sometimes have to permit ourselves the chance of losing something.

Those who wish to be too prudent, too careful,

who never want to run the risk of losing, or leaving, or letting go of something that belongs to them:

possessions, rights, just claims, their rest, their peace of mind,

sometimes — no, frequently — miss fine occasions to do great service

for God and neighbour and to enrich themselves."
