A Cup Of Thankfulness
Sharing the Blessings of Others
"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks;
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Random Acts of Kindness...
It brings me great joy to do something meaningful for someone else. Some of the most simplest of thoughtful actions on my part can truly make a major difference in someone's life. I know for myself that a smile from someone walking by, a sweet text from a friend I haven't heard from in a while, a hug from a child, news of blessings in someone's life... really make my day. I am thankful for others' simple and grand efforts to be kind to me and to others. I think we need more of this so we can be encouraged to be thankful.
I will be sharing different stories that have increased my thankfulness over the years in the future, but for today, I want to share about a new friend I have met and a blog post she wrote about Random Acts of Kindness. I was thankful to see someone focusing on kindness to others and her list of suggestions are quite lovely. I met Fabiana Meredith in a songwriting group on Facebook. When the group turned ugly in their commenting on one of my posts, one of the gals suggested I start a separate songwriting group for women. So I did. Fabiana was my first member. I appreciate her heart and am thankful for her efforts to encourage kindness and thoughtfulness.
I want to support people, companies and various organizations who are giving to this world in ways that increase love, encouragement, protection and a mind of service. So please take the time to visit Fabiana's blog and read through her list of Random Acts of Kindness. If you are able to, try out one or more of her suggestions and comment here about your experience. I would love to hear about it! You can see it by clicking RAK.
One of my favorite go-to's right now is sending sweet notes by text, Messenger, Snapchat and even FaceTime. Pic Collage is a phone app that has a "cards" section with pre-made stationary. It is a wonderful way to send a kind thought. Of course emojis are quick and easy when you want to send a heart or hug emoji to a friend or family member.
There are other organizations that focus on RAK (random acts of kindness). Some of these include the following links:
Facebook RAK Worldwide

I hope you are able to experience a cup of thankfulness today. It is not yet 9:30am and I already have so much to be thankful for...
Have a blessed day!
