I think it is a pretty safe bet to say there are some things in life everyone enjoys. Who doesn’t enjoy receiving a compliment or a genuinely nice person? Sometimes, a compliment or joyful smile can turn your whole day around.
Is there a specific person that comes to mind when you think of a joyful person? Or a specific act of kindness that you enjoy the most?
I want to encourage you to bless those around you with little acts of kindness. Each morning before your day starts, look at your schedule and pick a couple places where you can spur others on with love. It could be co-workers, clients, at the airport, post office, dentist or whom ever you wish.
Let the Lord’s light shine through you.
Have a blessed day!
