Why Giving is So Important: A Path to Blessings and Change

In a world where many are facing financial hardship, the idea of giving can feel counterintuitive. But both the Bible and the Qur’an teach us that giving is not a loss—it’s an investment in both spiritual and material blessings. Whether you’re Christian or Muslim, the principle is clear: if you want to receive, you must first give.

What the Bible Says About Giving

In Luke 6:38, Jesus teaches:

“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

This shows us that generosity unlocks divine favor. When we give out of love and faith, we are opening ourselves to God’s provision and promises.

What Islam Says About Giving

In Islam, giving is one of the central pillars of faith. Zakat (charitable giving) is a sacred obligation, and Sadaqah (voluntary charity) is a highly rewarded act. The Qur’an says:

“The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like a seed of grain which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains.” (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:261)

Just like in the Bible, this verse shows that giving multiplies—one act of charity can grow into countless blessings. Islam teaches that giving purifies the heart, supports the community, and brings barakah (blessing) to your wealth.

Giving Breaks the Cycle

It’s easy to hold on tightly when you're struggling, but both Christian and Islamic teachings call us to trust in a higher power. Giving breaks fear and builds faith. It tells the world, “I believe in something bigger than my problems.”

And when you give, you are not just helping others—you are positioning yourself for breakthrough. You are aligning with divine principles that promise multiplication, healing, and provision.

If you want to receive, give. If you want to get out of your financial situation, sow into something that matters. Let Aspeling High School be the place where your giving becomes a legacy.

Give generously. Give faithfully. Give with purpose. Let’s transform lives—together.

Why South Africa Needs More Private Schools in Middle-Class Communities

  Why South Africa Needs More Private Schools in Middle-Class Communities In South Africa, education is one of the most powerful tools we have to change lives — but access to quality schools remains unequal. Many public schools face serious challenges, including overcrowding, limited resources, and safety concerns. Private schools often provide better quality education, yet they are usually located far from middle-class communities and come with high tuition fees. That’s why we believe more private schools are not just a luxury — they are a necessity, especially in areas where parents are looking for better alternatives closer to home. 1. A Better Quality of Education Private schools typically offer smaller class sizes, more personalized attention, and well-trained teachers. Learners benefit from structured routines, stronger academic support, and access to modern resources — helping them grow in confidence and achieve their full potential. More private schools in middle-incom...
