5/11/2019 3 Comments A random act of kindness.Mother's day was quickly approaching and many of us were focusing on this day for various reasons. I was thankful for another year to celebrate with my mother. I saw a familiar face coming towards me during school dismissal time. Today, I was surprised by her abrupt stop in front of me. Taking her time, she carefully tugged out and handed me a beautiful red rose. Wow! what a beautiful act of selfless giving! I wasn't the only individual that was blessed with this gift. I watched her as she made her way deliberately around the room seeking out individuals to surprise with this beautiful token. Each day our Creator provides us with a new day of life. That day, of course, is different for each individual. We are each experiencing extremely different qualities of life and challenges. Every day, however, our creator visits us with a token, the gift of being ....a living, breathing spirit. We are invited to live in connection with our Creator, God and to share His Spirit of Love with others. Often, a random act of kindness, in Love, is all it takes to display and convey the Love of Christ that is available to us all. "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud." 1 Corinthians 13 v 4. kind·ness/ˈkīn(d)nəs/noun the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. synonyms: kindliness, kind-heartedness, warm-heartedness, tender-heartedness, goodwill, ... antonyms: unkindness, meanness
