Wow, this was so awesome!!! What a great idea! This a great idea to do during the summer! During the summer, I usually hang out and do fun stuff, but this summer I'm doing school all the way through so it's a little different, but still! I have a random act of kindness people can do---- bring cookies to your Orthodontist! I have a special story about doing that, for Christmas we brought a big plate of cookies to our Orthodontist, and he was so thrilled and happy he's talked about them at practically every visit since then! We're going to surprise him with another batch when we go back in July, so that count's as a summer act of kindness! Do you have a special story to share/
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Grace!! :D
Thank you Livy! Yeah it can be a little different when you have school to do during the summer... but still, usually certain things become less busy in the summer. Like co-ops or anything school related that you don't already do at home :P Oh yes! You told me about bringing cookies to your orthodontist! That was such a great way to bless him! :) I probably should do something like that sometime... except I probably shouldn't do cookies because they always have cookies in their office anyway xD
DeleteHmm, well I don't have any special story in particular coming to mind, but I've just been amazed at how I often am so blessed when I do things like these to bless others! Like friendships that result when I'm doing something ministry-related, or when I went on the mission trip and learned lots + was blessed by that. God's rewards and showers of blessings are always the best!
This was really good! I already do a few of the things on the list (visiting nursing homes is a favorite!), but the rest of those are awesome too! I'll have to try some of those.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Thank you so much Grace! We visit nursing homes often as well! :)
