You know, you are generous, and forgiving, and tend to help when you are not even asked etc.

Sometimes people do try, but I try not to let it happen. You do learn from experience, and if you see someone taking advantage of you, or even someone else, take action to put a stop it it ASAP.

No, I dont feel that Iam taken advantage of. I get tons of stuff in the mail to donate to different charities, I only donate to a select few and then to a few other organizations on my own. There is a way to be a truly giving from the heart Christian without being taken advantage of.

I do help people and for the most part am forgiving and generous, but i do not look at it as having been taken advantage of.
There have been times that i have been taken advantage of, but for the most part i am glad to help.

I have been taking advataged but I prayed about it and left it with the Lord, there were some who took advantage at the last fellowship that I was at but God will deal with them see Galations 6:7-9.
Be encouraged to know that God sees all and knows all and that He loves you I am convinced what does not get rewarded here will be rewarded in Heaven See Matthew 6
Thank you for posting and God bless you.

Sometimes, but I don't mind it. I guess I just tend to put too much faith in the goodness of mankind. I'll admit that I'm a bit naïve.

Yes, I am taken advantage of at times, but I have long past come to a place where it does not bother me anymore, for I am secure in who I am in Christ, and as long as I please Him, that is all that matters.

I've seen people try it - because I'm Christian, because I'm relatively young, because I'm a woman...there's always one reason or another someone will think you're an easy target.
Just show them they guessed wrong with you :)

No. I feel blessed when I help others.
I can’t entirely explain it but I feel like I’m learning things that I’m supposed to learn almost every time I put myself in the position to help.
How can you help but feel uplifted when you brighten somebody’s day?

I've never really thought about it. Since Jesus teaches to lay down your life, it really doesn't factor in to it what the other person's "agenda" is, if you know what I mean. I simply desire to do as He asks.
