Why do some have and get more while others have and get less? The bottom line is this: If you’re not gonna use it, you’ll lose it. Those walking in the light are able to see, understand, and give more which causes them to receive more. On the contrary, those in darkness have no sight or understanding even when the light is right in front of them. It’s not a matter of light–which is ever present–but of sight. The ones without sight cannot understand truth; therefore, they cannot give in order to receive.
