"Life is short, spend it wisely." ā Mel Robbins is not wrong, but she's just an inch from the truth, which is a mile from freedom. š Sheād probably agree with me on thisāliving for yourself only takes you so far, but when you give, you truly receive. āØ
Ā
The world says chase your joy and live for you. But God's way? It flips that script. True joy comes from pouring into others, not seeking for yourself. ā¤ļø
Ā
Itās not about what makes you happy; itās about what you give- thats how you receive joy. And thatās where fulfillment lives. š± The most joy-filled people aren't the ones who have the mostāthey're the ones who give the most. š
Ā
Your life is your message. Who are you investing in? Who are you serving? š«
