Cultivate Prosperity In Order To Help Others
Posted by Ken Lauher
The law of prosperity cannot be manipulated by man for his own selfish advantage. The working of that law is controlled by God, and He doesn't permit His laws to be bent or broken arbitrarily.
If man works in harmony with the divine law of success, he receives abundance; if by wrong actions he disrupts its generous flow into his life, he punishes himself.
How are you to work in harmony with the principles of that divine law? First of all, as I said, leave behind desire for and attachment to luxuries;
develop your mind power so that it is satisfied with simple things. After that, say: "Well, my needs are only a part of my responsibility. I have dependents and must fulfill my obligations to them also." Provide for your family, but n
ever spoil your children with too much money.
Unless you include the welfare of others in your prosperity you will never be ideally prosperous. I do not mean just a disinterested giving of money to needy persons, but a sincere reaching out to help others help themselves. Then you will see a tremendous law of supply at work in your own life. No matter what your situation might be, that law of reaping the good that you sow will be always with you to help you.
Most people think first and foremost about themselves, and about making money to satisfy their own desires. If you do that, sooner or later you are going to be deceived. Rather, you should start with this thought: "My life's duty is to make others happy."
Be motivated by how your actions and plans can be of benefit to others. Then devise the means to accomplish your goals.
In order to serve, you must have the necessary resources. If you milk the cow you must feed the cow. The ambition to live well and be prosperous becomes spiritualized if the purpose is to better serve others by being able to include them in your prosperity. In rendering good service, you are bound to get good returns; and when you get good returns, you can improve your own living standard and do even more for others. That is how the divine law works.
