Acts of Kindness
Dec/0932
One act of kindness
Can mean so very much
Just a pleasant smile
Or a gentle touch
Maybe an encouraging word
At the right time
Could end one’s depression
And make their eyes shine
Reaching out to others
Is what it’s all about
It can be done quietly
There’s no need to shout
When you perform an act of kindness
You’ve dropped a pebble in a stream
The ripples can keep spreading out
Forever, it may seem
The person whose life you touched
May reach out to touch their brothers
And those brothers may reach out
To touch the lives of many others
God wants us to share
Our kindness and our love
He gave each of us the capacity
It came from up above
It feels good to help someone
To reach out when they are down
To put a smile on a face
Where once there was a frown
Remember God is watching
He sees everything you do
When you perform acts of kindness
God sends many blessings to you

This “DAY” will never come again….We may “look back”, but we can never re-live it,… except in our minds…Make the “most” of it today…. Dec. 29, 2009

Yes, kindness is given in many ways. Sometimes I don’t know if the person I am talking to wants a hug, so I reach out and touch their arms and smile. It is always taken with a smile also. (And it didn’t cost anything.) Blessings. Elizabeth

Good point, its good to be kind but to people who will appreciate it not to those who will see it as what they are entitled to or as there right. If showing kindness do it with the whole of your heart. Giver never lack and there hands is always on the top.

Dear Adewunmi: As mother Teresa said, “Do it anyway.” Even though it doesn’t seem to have an effect on the person, “do it anyway.” We are glad that we have done a kindness to someone, it makes us feel better. Blessings Elizabeth

His BRIGHTNESS and Love intoxicates me to the extent that I’m oblivious
Of anything negative around me. Our Father in Heaven should take all the
Credit for this as His AMAZING GRACE opens up our vision. Amen

I read that to change your “bad” thoughts, just SMILE and immediately your whole
mood changes… Try it…it works… (Not a whole face smile, just a tiny one.)
Hope this makes you happier. GOD loves you.

Elizabeth, Beautiful words you have spoken…Not long ago I became Homeless, but I wasn’t scared because I knew God was watching over me. I didn’t have hate in my Heart for those that wouldn’t help me…I just prayed for them and asked God to forgive them…A wonderful Friend gave me a Home, and I feel so blessed…There are good and caring people out there…God sent me to this Person, and I have even a closer relationship to God…He has blessed me in so many ways…I try to help those less fortunate…I Love all of God’s Children…It hurts when you Frown, but a smile feels so good…Live for God and you will be blessed, and that’s a promise…Smiles to all!!
God Bless…Nancy Ahern

According to JESUS, ‘KIndness’ is the prerequisite re. Our Spiritual
Journey/Relationship with HIM. We can fool everyone, but we cannot
Hide anything from Him and can see through us. Jesus is beyond our comprehension.
GOD has all the answers and in time we will all will learn the art of Loving by
Getting the foundation of ‘kindness’ right.

It is because of acts of kindness that we know kindness, generosity, caring, compassion and love still exist in a world that can seem so cold and bleak. But, I just live in the world, I am not of the world. My brightness come from knowing the love of God!

I thank you for your kindness and love and caring for me. All you do is God’s Love that is filled inside of you and giving to me. Always at work I’m thinking about you and no matter where I go you are with me. Place your hand in mine and I’ll lead, for you mean the WORLD to me. ILU…Mwah!

This is truly beautiful,your words of sharing and caring are so important in our
mixed up world today.Your choice of music was most inspiring and perfect.
I feel the same way Mary,after giving a smile or hug along the way,it makes
the day a little bit brighter.
God Bless the author.

Because God loves us so much, we as his people are so saturated with this divine love ,we are called to share this love with those we meet in the course of daiky lives. Each time we touch others with our love in one little kindness or the other especially those who will never be able to repay us, we experience an inner satisfaction that material things cannot give. To the recepients of our kindness, their needs are not only met but their ego get elated. even when its just a smile.

Shakespeare confirms that we are merely actors on the theatre of life.
Whether we are enacting the role of King, Queen, villian, daughter, son etc
We are expected to perform our roles to the best of our ability. We must
TRY and see GOD in all irrespective of their behaviour towards us. The Lord does NOT expect us
To be ‘pushovers’ in this beautiful world that sometimes can get quite freaky at times.
We are advised NOT to ‘shed a tear for this world’ which is very difficult but
If we make an attempt to attach ourselves to Father’s Name, living each day at a time
And try to become a ‘silent observer of our destiny’ we will be fine. Without Forgiveness we have no future so
Let bygones be bygones and sing ‘All izz Well’ for Father…MWAH!
