What does it mean to be more blessed to give than to receive?

It means that giving is more enjoyable than receiving.

The philosopher Maslow said that there are five levels of human needs, in order: physiological needs, security needs, emotional and belonging needs, respect needs, and self-actualization needs. Being able to "give" shows that you have met the self-realization, and after "giving", you can be respected, which meets the two high-level needs of people at once.

Receiving may be physical, safe, or emotional, but not achieving a higher level of respect and self-actualization, so it is more blessed to give than to receive.

The Bible teaches that giving is more blessed than receiving, and that people can give to others regardless of their circumstances, whether rich or poor. In the time of your own abundance, you must not forget those who are in need. It is even more commendable to be able to extend a sympathetic hand when we are lacking.

The donation may be small, but it is significant. If you have the power to do good, you will not shirk.

It is of course good to have money to contribute and to have the strength to contribute. But if there is no love, it is only a façade. No matter what you do or what you do, love is the most important principle.

People are happy when they give. Others also feel warm and happy because of this contribution from themselves. And simply getting and receiving, there is not so much gain.

Therefore, it is more blessed to give than to receive.

"Giving is blessed" means: giving is a kind of happiness, because you are rich, and this wealth usually has nothing to do with wealth, but more importantly, spiritual wealth.

If you can help others, have the ability to help others, have love to care for others, take care of others, if you have enough wealth, you live better than others, and you have the strength to support others, then find a way to help others. It's a very joyful and interesting thing.

Scripture. On the giving is more blessed than receiving, giving is charity, giving is giving, giving out, when you give to others, solve other people's problems, it can also be said to be a charcoal in the snow, the kindness in the emergency is the greatest, in the emergency, see a person's character, embodies the true friendship and value. This is something that is incredibly grateful.

The taste of life is not only sweet, it is inevitable that some people will encounter such hardships in life, or will encounter such difficulties, so it is indeed very important to have an optimistic and kind heart.

When we have the opportunity to be kind to others, it is our luck and grace. We are lucky because God has given us superior conditions and circumstances, and has given us the ability to help others. Grace is a good man, because he who can help others is more fortunate than the one who receives help from others, and he is more blessed to do it than to receive, and if he refuses to be kind to others or is stingy with giving, then he is a very poor person. Blessings wish you to be a kind and loving ascendant who has the ability to help others

—Why is it said that "it is more blessed to give than to receive"?

Why do you say "give people roses, leave a lingering fragrance in your hands"?

Why do you say that "good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil"?

You know, the old saying makes sense, but there is actually a scientific basis.

Scientists have discovered that there are two sets of emotional systems in our bodies.

One of them is the goodwill system, where when we do good deeds, we secrete a hormone called oxytocin, which is produced in large quantities during a woman's birth, known as the "hugging hormone".

"Oxytocin" can help mothers relieve stress, lower blood pressure, and better raise babies, which is the physiological basis of "maternal love". In normal times, oxytocin makes us feel calm, trust each other, and even speed up wound healing.

Another set that corresponds to good intentions is the life-saving system, which can be called a malicious system. When we are resentful, the areas of the brain that are related to aggression are activated, and the "cortisol" in the body is elevated. This hormone is associated with stress, speeds up the heartbeat, and can further enhance aggression.

Long-term high cortisol is an important cause of osteoporosis and decreased learning ability.

When you do good, your body is treated with kindness; When you attack resentment, your body is also secreting a lot of hormones that make you anxious. This may be the physiological basis for good to be rewarded for good, and evil to be rewarded for evil.
