Givers vs Takers

When you offer too much, people may cherish the gift over the giver.I mean they may fall in love with your hand not your heart.

Overindulging others with gifts can foster not gratitude, but entitlement.Even in courtship you should avoid indiscriminate financial giving to blot out takers.

They may seek you out for what you provide, overlooking the sacrifices you make.

The assumption might be that you give from abundance, not from a place of compassion.

They may feel entitled to your generosity, passively awaiting the next offering.

Consistent reliance on the same aid year after year should raise concerns about their self-management. Continual support may encourage dependence and a lack of initiative. Moreover, you risk resentment when the giving ceases.

Therefore, it’s crucial to safeguard your resources. Those who take without giving may never cease to do so.At times we should emphasize on reciprocity.

  3. Indeed. This is so true Evidence and I have also experienced this with even my time. Being a shoulder to cry on, a listening ear and someone who can provide counselling means people clamour for your time. I have had to cut off a few people who call when they need someone to listen and encourage them, but are never available if you need them. I even got tired of people only reaching out because they needed someone to pray for them. Whichever way, it’s a pull on our resources, human or material which we have to preserve form Takers. We can’t cast our pearls before swines. Bless you. 🙏🏾
