What a wonderful feeling that family, friends and strangers can bring to our heart, when we engage with others. What an even bigger joy it brings my Fathers heart when we come to His table and engage with Him. When we love others we are loving the Father. Did you do a random act of kindness today? Did you think about it? Did you come up with something but talk yourself out if it? Did you worry about what others MIGHT think about you? Were you afraid that you MIGHT look silly? MIGHT be REJECTED? Often times these are the very fears that run through my heart and stop me from loving others well or just loving them in general. Even in love, I can get caught up in myself, my fears and the whole "WHAT ABOUT ME" thing. I'm pretty sure that I'm the only one who has this problem... oops here I go again... it's all about me!!!!Where would I/we be had Jesus said, "Sorry no can do, can't die on the cross today." "What will people think of me." "What if they still reject me, I just can't risk that." I did do a random act of kindness for a stranger today. Not to blow my horn, but just to say... I hope this person understood that today someone cared about her. So many people go through each day and don't know that they are loved and appreciated. There is always time to love and help others. Make it a part of your everyday life! It's a part of Jesus' everyday life.
