SMALL ACTS OF KINDNESS!
Matt
10:41-42
41 He that
receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward;
and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall
receive a righteous man's reward.
42 And
whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold
water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall
in no wise lose his reward.
I
officiated the funeral
of a dear friend yesterday. Atop the flaming emotions was a 90-degree sun. It
was exhausting. At the conclusion of the service the funeral director offered
my wife and me a small bottle of ice-cold water. It was very life in a plastic
bottle! God saw that.
Small
acts of kindness
often go unnoticed even by those who are the recipients. Too often we take them
from granted and feel that we are entitled more than others to kind deeds. If
we indulge ourselves for too long, we become brutish and cruel. God sees
that too.
Heb
4:13
13 Neither
is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked
and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Dear
Lord, let me show the kindness of Jesus to everyone today. AMEN
