Hebrews 13:16

Every once in awhile you’ll hear that it’s, “Random Acts of Kindness Day.” And everyone should go out and do something in service of another. But God tells us that everyday should be filled with acts of kindness for others. For the love and blessings He so generously gives to us, we are to pass on to another. You know I’ve heard it said that the service we give to others is the rent we give to live on this earth! I like that. And that rent should be collected in payments of love. Because love isn’t how we feel about someone, it’s how we treat them. So instead of just praying for God to meet someone’s need, if we can meet that need ourselves we are to do it. Becoming a blessing to others doesn’t only benefit them, but is also pleasing to God. And By reaching out to others in love and kindness, we can create a better world for ourselves and those around us.

Hebrews 6:10

I was saw a quote which read, “Doing the right thing even when no one is looking is easy. Just need remember that we are not in this life alone and that our task is to please God, not people.” It can be frustrating striving to do the right thing when all we need do is look around and see the wicked prospering. And it’s easy to get discouraged feeling like the work we do, the kindness we show, or the love we share goes unnoticed. Especially by God. But the writer of Hebrews promises that the Lord sees every good deed we do. And He never overlooks, nor forgets, the fruit we produce for His kingdom, or the times we minister lovingly to His people. So don’t give up or quit doing what is right. Because day we will all stand before God to receive our heavenly rewards. And what a joyous privilege it will be to lay our prized crowns at His feet!
