Have you ever felt a rush after doing a good deed? Ever noticed you were more relaxed after a day of volunteering? Did you ever feel motivated to do good after thinking about the last time you helped someone? If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then that is proof that doing good is an incredible thing.
Good deeds are what turn the world around.
Therefore Sir Knight is a world changer! With the brilliant idea to feed the world around him with just one steem at a time.
What a great man?!
He introduced the steemchurch, to change lives here on steemit.
Now he has brought the idea of STEEMCHURCH farms to feed people
This is the best idea yet.
And i am happy it will soon launch.
The beauty of the STEEMCHURCH FARMS will soon be felt by the world.
I would love to give some world striking facts about world hunger to prove that this idea that the great knight has come up with is one that will go a long way to help out the needy.
Estimatedly there are 842 million people that suffer from hunger worldwide. That’s almost 12 percent of the world’s population of 7.1 billion people.
Ninety-eight percent of people who suffer from hunger live in developing countries. 553 million live in the Asian and Pacific regions, while 227 million all live in Sub-Saharan Africa. Latin America and the Caribbean account for 47 million.
India has the highest population of hungry people. In 2014, over 190.7 million people were undernourished in India. Wow
4.Approximately 9 million in the people die of world hunger each year according to the world hunger statistics; more than the death toll for malaria, AIDs and tuberculosis combined in 2012.
5.Because of the prevalence of hunger in women in most developing countries, malnutrition is a leading cause of death for children. Approximately 3.1 million children always die of hunger in each year, and in 2011 poor nutrition accounted for 45 percent of deaths for children under five.
World hunger has proven to be a very difficult problem to solve, despite the efforts of many nations and organizations working to eradicate it. However, world hunger statistics show that great progress has been made towards reducing it, and i also want to add that if STEEMCHURCH FARMS KICKS OFF; it'll be joining the world to fight world hunger.
But Why should you do good deeds?
Whether we call it random acts of kindness, paying it forward, or good deeds, they are all very powerful. That is why almost every single religion and culture values and rewards the performance of good deeds that have been done.
There are many benefits to doing good deeds. Some of these benefits may be obvious to you, while you may not have considered some of the others.
Let me outline for you the numerous benefits of performing good deeds. I am sure that you are already a very generous person. I hope that I can give you o great knight even more reasons to do even more good deeds than you currently do.
Good deeds are like cash crops: they take a while before they begin to yield. This can sum up what happened to Mordecai.
Avoid the temptation of getting weary even there is no immediate reward for the good labour you put up. Know of a surety that God will organize your reward for the good labour you put up. Know of a surety that God will organize your reward at the time you will profit most wonderfully from it.
The advice that the author of the book of Ecclesiastes gave is of value here. With regards to sowing he counsels that we should sow in the morning, and in the evening we should not forbear. When you sow seeds of good deeds over and over, a time come when your harvest begin to overlap as well.
There's a little science in doing good.
SCIENTIFIC FACTS BACKING GOOD DEEDS*
1.DOING GOOD INCREASES LIFE-EXPECTANCY
Yes, it’s true. Researchers from the University of Buffalo found a link between giving, unselfishness and a lower risk of early death.
Fact! The findings showed that subjects who provided tangible assistance to friends or family members (for example running errands, helping with child care, etc.), reported less stressful events and, consequently, had reduced mortality. In other words, there's “helping others reduced mortality specifically by buffering the association between stress and mortality.”
2.DOING GOOD PROMOTES MENTAL HEALTH
The results are in! After an extensive review of 40 studies on the effect of volunteering on general health and happiness, the BMC Public Health journal of the year has concluded that volunteering is also good for human mental health. The review found that - along with improved well-being and life satisfaction – volunteering is also linked to decreased depression. This is fact
3.DOING GOOD WILL MOTIVATE YOU TO DO GOOD AGAIN
A 2012 study published in Psychological Science found out that thinking about the times you’ve helped others will make you want to help others again. The researchers found that reflecting on your past good deeds will make you feel selfless and want to help out more, as compared to reflecting on the times that others have helped you. In other words, thinking about what you’ve given others – and not only what you’ve received - will motivate you to do good again and again. Another fact.
