Tap on the Heart

Sometimes a simple whisper of a hello

A tap on the heart with a smile

The tender touch of a kiss on the cheek

A bit of a talk on the phone

A pat on the back

Holding a hand with concern

Praying for comfort and peaceful rest

Such acts of kindness and gentle thoughtfulness

Can mean all the difference

To a hurting and lonely soul.

Mistakes

A mistake stays a mistake I don’t learn from it. If it teaches me that I am responsible for the choices I make when tested then it becomes a lesson in life and is up to me to study for the exam! I am responsible for me but the consequences of my choices will affect everyone with the ripples caused by any stones I may throw. God, Please help me to always be kind and forgiving not only to others but to myself as well.

 

We are the Seed

We are the seed that decides the harvest around us. St. Basil said, “A good deed is never lost; He who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.”Galatians 6: 7, 9 says…..For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. and let us not be weary in well-doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. (KJV). My prayer for today is that I sow peace to reap contentment, mercy to reap forgiveness, courage to reap honor, and patience with love to reap eternity in Heaven. Amen

 

How Many Times?

How many times have we

Passed this way

And not seen the light of day?

How many times have we

Stopped to say

“Oh, How are you today?”

How many times have we

Given our smiles away?

How Many times have we

Planned to help someone along the way?

How many times have we

Hoped to say

“I’ve made a new friend today!”

How many times have we

Knelt to pray

“Please God, Make me a better person today?”
