Scripture: There's no better time than now to read the Christmas stories in all gospels!
Scripture standout: Check it!
His Deed the Day: So we're off for the slopes. There will be plenty of deeding and fun to be had, but in case we miss something, here are the deeds for the days we'll be gone;
278: Don't miss a Beat Inc., $10 for student field trips
279: ElderSource, Dining with Dignity, $10 for making built up silverware and weighted cups
280: Dignity U Wear, $10 to provide five new pairs of socks and underwear for one week for a child living in poverty.
281: Emergency Services and Homeless Coalition of Jacksonville, $10 to Christmas meals for recently housed individuals

What happens when you deliberately tweak your conscience to be more aware of meeting others' needs? Every day? And if it happens to be Lent...for 40 days? What does that look like? What deeds would transpire? What blessings come back? How do we listen for direction? Wake up each morning and decide to be intentional about bringing others better into focus with a little prayer, silence and scripture. Let the daily deeding commence! #DoingUntoOthers #OthersFirst #OneDeedADayGo
How to Do-Good
Quick How-To Guide: Start the day with a little silence, scripture (via Forward Day by Day, if you choose) and prayer. Then open your eyes and make it a practice to be hyper-aware of who and what's going on around you. Deploy that deed with confidence when God gives you his signature gentle nudge. This may feel awkward and unnatural. #NoWorries #GoWithIt #DeedWellDone #BlessingsEnsueJustWait
