That this leg may stand on solid ground and your giving begin, twice blessed are you who take this second leg to heart. That you may give to others, you must give to yourself. Forgive yourself all that keeps you from greatness. I am a child of God and from my soul I give. My heart beats to give to you, my God, and your children. I give myself the knowledge that I am made in God’s image and likeness to be perfect, whole and complete. I am all I need to be to set the second leg as the foundation of God’s will for me and all others.

The gift of giving is more than the mental process of I think I should, therefore I give. Be responsible in giving. If others benefit from your gift and you or your family are left wanting, this is not responsible giving, this is suffering. Be you abundant so others may prosper also. God has not meant for you to go hungry so others may eat. You are not to go naked so others may be clothed. You shall not live in the streets, that others may live in a mansion. There is no gift so small that it does not make a brick. But to give only so a brick is added to your mansion is done in vain, for no brick is made.

Should not you render with the same thoughts a life to be spared? Should you not think that all life is as precious as your own? Think you not that it makes no difference or that any gift you give is insignificant. For I tell you truly, there is no gift you give too little that it will not be given back to you to the nth degree.
