Generosity Quotes Novels & Stories

“Wala naman akong aasahang iba. Nahihiya na rin naman ako sa ‘yo.” “Wala ‘yon. Kaya lang alam mo namang limitado rin lang ang maitutulong ko financially.

Thank you for everything. 12 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. (Colossians 3:12-14)

For example, the luxury goods that rich people buy, and the connections that the second generation of rich kids have. They may seem to be nice to you, but it's really just a matter of saying a few words. And no matter the circumstances, being willing to sacrifice one's own interests, or even one's life, for others is the best reward for love.” Habang nagsasalita si Mr. Pascual, naging seryoso ang tono nito.
