don't give yourself away

All God's Children

God said:

Although you are to give without thought of return, you are not to give too much of yourself away. You are not to make yourself a slave to others' needs and wants. This is a pitfall. Over-giving does not serve another well. And it may consume too much of your energy and leave you depleted and resentful. Perhaps you are expending too much. What you spend of yourself is not any other person's responsibility. It's your own. Don't blame them.

I did not tell you to starve yourself in order to feed the world.

I did not say to spend so much of your energy that you have none left.
