It makes me feel like I can live in the Kingdom of God right hear on planet earth today. Ways to be loving. I also visit someone in an 'old folks home'. Each week my friend asks me who I am and asks why i'm here. I tell her that I came by just to visit her. It can be affirming to repeat the same thing each week because it speaks love each time you say it. I like this.

Sometimes I ask myself if it's worth it. I'll grumble to myself that nobody really cares about all the "behind the scenes" stuff that I do. Thanks for the reminder that God sees it and God cares.

I've also heard that being "Christian" isn't convenient. However, you see it, acts of service should be about the character, the heart behind the action. We all have need at one time or another. And isn't that how we should be living. Taking a few more seconds to do the "right thing." I think of that insurance commercial where acts of kindness become contagious. Big things, small things, they all make a difference. And they change the atmosphere in a split second.
