Here is a personal Christmas story that inspired me to always try to give back. When our family was struggling, several generous gifts were given to us which inspired my husband and I to give as much as we could when we were able. 

‘What can I give Him, Poor as I am?-
If I were a Shepherd I would bring a lamb;
If I were a Wise Man, I would, do my part,-
Yet what I can I give Him, – Give my heart.’
“In The Bleak Midwinter”, Christina Rossetti
