GIFT SOME KINDNESS TO THE WORLD TODAY

GIFT SOME KINDNESS TO THE WORLD TODAY - Elvira Jordan

Good Morning Beloved!!!

You will agree with me that the World is really tough these days; in different ways, at different levels, to different people.

It even seems like it gets tougher everyday because every new day or season comes with higher challenges for individuals and the wider collective of people.

Some people may say that the ever growing difficulties and challenges experienced in the world today are caused by negative powers from the under world, the devil... on one hand, this might be true.

But then, we have to see that not everything is caused by demons and evil spirits. Some of the evil things we see today are products of man's inhumanity to man; lack of sympathy, lack of consideration, selfishness and greed among humans.

When we have a higher collective of people across the world sowing seeds of wickedness and unkindness, it manifest as the unease and toughness we experience around us.

Sometimes we as individuals contribute to the toughness of the world by being cruel and unfair to strangers. We should know by now that whatever we sow into the world will come back to us, through other people and in other ways.

If you sow love and kindness, Love and Kindness will return to you. If you sow bitterness and hate, same will return to you.

Today, I urge us all to be ambassadors of love and goodwill. Smile at people, even when you know that can't help you in anyway. Show someone some kindness. Help someone out with their task if you can.

It doesn’t take much to be kind to someone, but it creates a far more lasting impact on the subject of your kindness.

I little smile, a casual ‘Hello’, a little help to a stranger can save a soul, heal a broken heart or just light up someone’s world.

If monetary gifts can be expensive, the gift of love and kindness is very cheap and easy to give. The results are even more beautiful.

Everyone you see out there is fighting a battle of their own. A simple smile can make their battle less painful.

Gift some kindness to the world today.

Bible Verse: Proverbs 11:17

Those who are kind benefit themselves, but the cruel bring ruin on themselves.

Prayer: Dear Lord, no matter how cruel and difficult the world may be, give me a heart of love and kindness, that my actions and words will be a healing balm to the people around me. and kindness, and goodness will follow us wherever we go. Amen

Do have a Blessed Monday and a Successful Week ahead.
