Deuteronomy 15:10
Give generously to him and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.
The passage is talking about debt and money but when I saw this on an old church bulletin from this summer the "giving" I was thinking about was a little different. Service, obedience and submission. Giving MYSELF, giving LOVE. Sometimes it is hard to love and sometimes it's hard to feel loved. Probably because I'm centered on SELF. Whatever I have I should be willing to give to others without worry of receiving it back. How loved we would all feel if we all functioned this way. There actually was an interesting article in O magazine (not usually a huge fan of Oprah, but...) about a love fast. http://www.oprah.com/article/omagazine/200810_omag_love_fast
