Hello all.
The family and I just returned from a visit to North Carolina. This is where my family lives which includes my 93 year old grandmother who still goes to her garden and picks her own flowers. She truly is amazing.
It was a great visit and it never fails to amaze me the difference in culture from up here compared to the south. It is so nice to go to the local market and have almost everyone say hello or giving a warm smile or wave. It really reminds me of how nice it is to feel safe and comfortable where you live. We have that same ability to make a place like that no matter where we live. I know not all of us are able just to say hello to perfect strangers but we can certainly smile, we can certainly hold a door open for someone. Those random acts of kindness are so addictive and so easy to do. All we have to do is look for the opportunities and when they present themselves JUST DO IT!
God wants us to do things for others without being applauded for or publicly rewarded. He sees what we do, that is all that really matters. I would much rather be told of the opportunities I took advantage of by God then told of all the ones I MISSED by God. Just a thought. Leave me a comment on some experiences you may have when someone did something for you that you did not expect. These stories make such great testimonies and memories.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Have a great and blessed week.

Amen brother! Like you said, it don't take much to smile at someone or hold open a door. Those are the kind of things I try to do all the time, spreading the love of Jesus doesn't get any easier that.
