Maybe because I have been preaching from the beatitudes, I am more aware of good deeds, lately. This past week I saw four of our members performing an act of kindness. I am confident there have been more than that. In one case, I do not think that the recipient is even aware of who did the good deed.
Serving others is a good indication of the heart of a person. Jesus lives there. Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God. (Matt 5:8). Those who serve others with no ulterior motive other than to be a blessing to them are a blessing to the Lord. They encourage others by their actions. They have taken the Word of God from the written page and allowed it to become written on the heart.
Christianity is a “doing” life. May God bless all of our “doing kindness” members.
