Kindness is Contagious

Never underestimate the power of a planted seed. - Anon

Jesus said a tiny mustard seed provided 'apartment housing' for many birds. Hmm!

The movie 'Pay It Forward' highlighted the truism that one good deed deserves another. The movie tried to capture the links between the initial good deed and how far along it went sparking others. The bottom line was that you never really know the total impact 1 random act of kindness can generate, because kindness is often very contagious. And though in life it would be nice to see our expressions of kindness returned or passed on, that should never be the reason for us to act. When we act and live out our faith in love, it will indeed bear fruit, even if we don't personally see the results. We trust God for the outcome. It truly is great to be blessed by God, but to be a blessing to someone else is a far greater reward.

Until Monday...

"But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown." - Matthew 13:23
