Three Types of People

There are three types of people in the kingdom of God
The type that are the blessors 
The type that are the halfers
And the type that are the receivers
This does not mean that you are only that 
It just means it is your main one
God will bless you according to your ability to reciprocate
If you only take and never give
don't be surprised if your storehouse is empty
And you are the one who is expecting a hand out
If you are only giving half of the time
Don't be wondering why it's never full
God gives us the means to fulfill our obligation
He never asks us to do something that we cannot do
Never want us to lose in order to gain
He will give you so you can give
And He will never give you more so you can keep it to yourself
He ordained who is what from the beginning
Know your place
That is the place where you are comfortable with
Don't try to do anything out of your comfort zone
That is not a good place to be
If you are a halfer and all you do is give 
You will feel depleted, unsatisfied
If you are the blessors, step up
And never wonder why you never expect anything from people
You get it from Him
If you are the taker, don't complain
Or you will surely hear it from Him
This is how the world is going around
There has to be giver, taker, give and take
Do you know where you are?
