Today is Monday. Do kind things this week. The first day of the week tells us the story of Jesus Christ who appeared showing kindness and love (Titus 3:4). Having spent the day in worship to the Father our second day begins a week of showing kindness to others. Albert Schweitzer said, “All the kindness which a man puts out into the world works on the heart and thoughts of mankind.” There is a contagious spirit of the welfare for our fellow man when we do a small act of kindness. Others may see a simple gesture of opening a door for someone and return an act of kindness to another. Road rage should be replaced with road kindness. Expressing a word of thanks to those we come in contact with may change that person’s day. Kindness, like snow, covers the world in a blanket of beauty that while made up of individual flakes of charity becomes a landscape of God’s love to all men.  “Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness” (Colossians 3:12). Doing kind things this week may surprise some people. Monday is a great day to do kind deeds because the blues of Monday will be brightened by the warmth of a kind hand or word. And then when the deeds and words of kindness continue throughout the week your life will change. That is the funny thing about kindness: you find your own happiness in sharing happiness with others. So what do you plan to do today to be kind? Remember there are five more days of the week to do random acts of kindness. I love Monday’s – don’t you?
