Yours to Give and to Receive

Give faith to your brother, for faith and hope and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give, the gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God you would receive. ~ Schucman, Dr. Helen. A Course in Miracles. Foundation for Inner Peace. Kindle Edition.

Reciprocity. Exchanging things
with others for mutual benefit.
As people of faith and hope and mercy,
what holds us together
is the radical love of God.
If we live as a people
of faith, hope and mercy,
we convey these great riches
to all who we see,
and the gift we give
we receive in return,
the practice of exchanging things
with others for mutual benefit,
a gift of God freely given
to all who choose
faith, hope and mercy.
