This question has been on my mind lately. It seems that our lives are busier now more than ever. Attractors are pulling at us from all directions and they never seem to grow weary. Deadlines crowd us with intense pressure. If not wise, we can become complacent and even lethargic in our response to this busy lifestyle and neglect caring for others. I belive if we chose to go the extra mile and do a little more than expected we could bring forth substantial change. Here are a few ideas to consider:
- condense your table dishes to a presentable pile - assisting the waiter/waitress
- leave the front row spaces to others
- use handles limiting the fingerprints and facial impressions on glass doors
remember: "and some have compassion making a difference" (Jude 22).
Welcome to the blog-o-sphere!
ReplyDeleteI agree that small acts of kindness and consideration are far too rare in modern society. One never knows the situations of those around us and even the smallest gestures can make a huge difference in someone's day. It is all too easy to fall into the me-centric mode of thinking, and when we do this we fail to show the light of Christ.
I look forward to reading more!
Thanks, Jon, for checking in on the center tonight. Blessings.
