How to receive with thanks? If you learn to put this teaching into practise you will realise how much more fulfilling your life will be.
I am sure that you heard the phrase it is better to give than to receive but I want to share that it is also good to receive as well
Receiving is something that most people have a hard time doing. We can give easily but we find it hard to receive.
If you are someone who says ‘you didn’t have to do that for me’ when someone blesses you then you are someone who has a hard time receiving.
We insult people when we make such statements and we need to learn to receive with thanks.
When God blesses you, receive it with joy and stop trying to justify why you don’t deserve this blessing from someone.

I admit that this is very challenging especially if you are someone who gives a lot. It makes it hard to receive.
When Mary Magdalene poured expensive perfume on Jesus, Jesus did not refuse this blessing. When Peter told Jesus he did not want him washing his feet, Jesus rebuked him!!!
The moral of this story is when you have to give, give your best and when you have to receive, receive it with joy and tell the person thanks a lot and you appreciate their gift and don’t use those stupid phrases like ‘you didn’t have to do this for me’
Stop telling yourself you do not deserve or you need to pay back this person because they did a great deed. Learn to receive with meekness.
Receive with JOY!!!!!
