Surrender to Humility
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.—James 4:10 (NIV)
Sometimes volunteering might seem like a thankless task, but the truth is, when you lend your time and energy you benefit as well. If you feel like your best efforts are hardly making a difference, remind yourself that every little bit of generosity counts and that you are blessed by caring for others.
Heavenly Father, help me to give in faith.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.—James 4:10 (NIV)

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.—Galatians 5:22–23 (NIV)

Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.—1 Corinthians 15:58 (NIV)
Every year Guideposts brings hope and inspiration into the lives of millions of people in need. Your generosity powers these efforts.
