Try A Little Kindness
Posted by kingofkingspastor on December 23, 2007
Last Thursday I was attending a meeting at Spargos on University drive. I was there early, so I ended up being the first one there. I had about 15 minuets before the others got there, and so I decided to read a paper. Many times people leave papers there and they put the ones left behind up by the cash register. But on that day, there were no papers in the rack. I looked in my pocket, but didn’t have any change for the paper boxes outside. So there I sat with nothing to do.
A minute didn’t go by when there was a tap on my shoulder. A man leaving the restaurant handed me a folded paper as he was walking out the door. All he said was, “Merry Christmas.” I said, “Thank you so much, and a Merry Christmas to you too.” What a difference that little act of kindness made to my whole day.
We all know this to be so true. A little act of kindness can make such a difference in a person’s day. But we have to be looking and ready to make that difference. This act was multiplied by the man’s greeting and well wishes. Take a moment today, right now, after reading this blog, and share a random act of kindness for someone. It can really make a difference! Ask Jesus to show you someone that can really use it.
God Bless your Christmas celebration!
