We often think that in order to be a giving person we must be wealthy, but that could not be further from the truth. There are many ways that people can enrich the lives of those around them without spending a cent. Volunteering time or skills, sharing words of encouragement and compliments, and helping others to achieve their life goals are all ways to raise your vibration through the power of giving. The universe returns generosity with abundance.
By being a giving person, you attract universal abundance into your life. People who do have extra funds to spare can put their money to good use by supporting those less fortunate. Money is an energetic frequency just like everything else, and many people find that the more money they give away thoughtfully, the more money comes back to them.
How the Law of Tenfold Return Works
The law of tenfold goes along with the law of abundance. When we are giving, we immediately receive a rush of happy emotions. We may feel proud, grateful, accomplished, or loving because of our ability to do good in the lives of others. The law of tenfold can be found mentioned in multiple religious texts.
Because our thoughts and emotions are tied to what we manifest in our reality, the act of giving raises our vibration into a more abundant vibration. When we are giving, we can expect to receive abundance in return.
“Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously”
2 Corinthians 9:6
So how does the law of tenfold work? The law of tenfold basically states that whatever is given away will come back multiplied by tenfold. Sometimes this means that the person that you help out might help you out in the future, but usually the law of tenfold works in more mysterious ways. You never know how the universe may choose to repay you for your act of kindness.
When giving, do it from the kindness of your heart without the expectation of getting anything in return from the person. All you need to do is have faith that you will receive abundance from the universe in return for your generosity.
“One good turn deserves another.”
– Proverb
To use the law of tenfold to manifest abundance into your life, use intentional giving and the power of positive thinking. Only give away what you can afford, without selling yourself short. A little goes a long way. John D. Rockefeller gave away a single dime to every person he met and went on to be one of the richest men to ever live.
The return will be equal to what you think you have given is worth. If you think along the lines of, “it’s only a dollar, it won’t make a difference”, the universe will respond to that. Be grateful that you have something to give, even if it is only a dollar. The power of giving allows us to step into the abundance mindset. Penny-pinching leads to a lack mindset, whereas spending freely helps us shift into a vibration where we have the abundance to give back even more.
When we give money, energy, or time away thoughtfully to others we should feel lucky to do so, which promotes a sense of gratitude for all that we have. Gratitude is a high vibrational emotion that attracts abundance. When you appreciate everything you have, the universe returns the gratitude by giving you even more things to be grateful for.
Practicing Kindness & Compassion
Do you feel good about yourself when you can help others? Helping the people you care about can be a great way to give yourself a confidence boost. You may have more to offer the world than you realize. Kindness and compassion are very high vibration emotions. Genuine compassion and kindness fill our hearts with love and light. Here are some ideas for how to raise your vibration through the power of giving.
1. Be a Friend
Sometimes all someone needs is a good friend to talk to. Life can be lonely or difficult at times for us all. It costs zero dollars to be there for someone in their time of need. A lot of times it is not necessary to give advice when all they need is a listening ear.
Check-in with your friends and family often to see how they are doing. They will likely return the favor, helping meaningful relationships to flourish. You never know how much of an impact a kind word can have on someone.
2. Volunteer
With all of the tragic things happening in the world, it can be easy to feel as if we as individuals do not have the power to change things. Focusing on local issues in our community can make a huge difference in how we perceive volunteer work. When you focus on issues that are affecting those in your local community, you can see the results of your efforts in real-time.
Some ideas for where to volunteer are at a local animal shelter, food bank, or retirement home. If there is an issue that you feel passionately about, get involved in the cause. It can be an empowering and self-esteem-building experience to give back to your community. Step into your power by using your energy to help others.
3. Put Pocket Change to Use
You do not have to be wealthy for your charitable contributions to make a difference. The pocket change in the bottom of your couch could be enough to feed someone for a day who would otherwise not be able to eat.
Many people have found that the more they give their money away in thoughtful ways, the more money returns to them via the law of tenfold return. As a rule, we should not give away what we do not have. Be generous yet thoughtful about where you choose to give away your money, time, and energy.
Practice the Power of Giving
The power of giving is that it boosts self-esteem, gratitude, and positive thinking to attract a more abundant, positive life. You can make a positive impact in the world in many small ways, and as your abundance grows you will be able to give back in more significant ways. The joy, love, and gratitude that comes along with helping someone in need are priceless.
Go out and practice the power of giving for yourself today. You might start a butterfly effect of kindness that stretches far beyond yourself. The universe will respond to the energy that you put out into the world, so go out and be kind to others.
