Scripture standout: Ps 27: "13 I remain confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the LORD
in the land of the living."
Acts 24: "24 “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else...27 God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. 28 ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’[a] As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’[
Morning thoughts: We all see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living — this much I know for sure after being knee-deep into this 40-Day+ challenge of doing one good deed a day. Examples and reminders are EVERYWHERE. It's just a matter of seeing them. Waking up each morning, meditating on some scripture and asking to be a small blessing to someone each day is just a small drop in the bucket. But look around — you'll see people's little blessings blossom into world-changers.
I defy anyone to watch this video from Hottie Brian Williams' Making a Difference broadcast last night — and not tear up from the story's poignancy. This nine-year-old girl, whose deed started out as fundraiser for clean drinking water in Africa in lieu of birthday presents, ended up changing thousands of hearts and raising hundreds of thousands of dollars. Even in her death, this girl's seemingly small act of kindness exploded into something beyond comprehension. Do our small acts have similar effects — multiplying on levels we are never aware of? Is that the way God's blessings work?
