It is better to receive than to give.

A commandment with regard to our relationship to God, compared to our relationship to people, where it is better to give than to receive—when Jesus, the "bread of life" and the “living water,” wants us to partake of Him and receive from Him all that we lack in this world.
Jesus told his disciples that it is more blessed to give than to receive in relating to others, and when it comes to meeting their physical and spiritual needs, He wants them to know that as their Provider, Deliverer, and Healer, it is better to receive than to give.
