Make Me A Blessing
May 7, 2024
In our chaotic world, I’m noticing the impact of simple words and acts of encouragement. Thanking a cashier, complimenting the dental hygienist, a wave and a smile for the life guard. They beam back as if you’d made their day.
Every morning I’m singing to God and to myself an old song, “Make me a blessing to someone today.” The highways and byways of today display rudeness, harsh words and worse, and unwelcome gestures. Ask God to prompt you. Show you the moment and the person. He will! Proverbs 15:23 A person finds joy in giving an apt reply, and how good is a timely word! He knows just the person who needs that. Five seconds, two minutes, that blessing has eternal impact. They are blessed and we find joy.
