God never sleeps, God never slumbers. Cast your cares on Him for He is always awake. He wants us to surrender it all to Him so we can rest in His love. I believe this promise and I know it to be true. Life is so hard and can really beat you down. People sometimes don't even realize when they are being used by the enemy to discourage us or defeat us. But we are never to feel this way for the Lord is fighting our battles each and every day in each and every way. Be anxious for nothing. The battle is the Lord's. But that doesn't mean we aren't to be the light in the darkness. When you are out and about, smile to a stranger. Hold the door open for that person. Let someone out in front of you in traffic instead of speeding up to block them. Be the encourager. Draw people to you because of your kindness. Because of your light. Because of your uniqueness. Isn't it silly to ponder the thought that when someone is nice to you, you actually question "why are you being so nice?". C hands out free cd's of his father's praise and worship album and people ask him why is he doing it. I respond always when he cannot hear them, "He wants to spread the word of God and he cherished his father's music. Just spreading the love. " It is then people walk away saying it is so nice. I marvel at how C's kind ways are looked upon as odd and suspect. The world has definitely changed and has gotten alittle skeptical. But instead of C becoming like the world and their mindset, his belief is to be the influence. And I challenge you to do the same today. And watch and see the difference you can make too. Be blessed!
John 15: 19
