It is a hard lesson to learn that even when we feel neglected, excluded, lonely or even angry we are supposed to serve others. It is our job to seek people out, encourage them, help them and be patient with them.
I love that the devotion I read yesterday said that small acts like a note, taking someone to lunch or an encouraging word could have the power to change lives. That is so true. Not only can it change the person you are blessing but your own life as well. And, although it is easy to bless the people we want to bless, we should also seek out someone else we think may feel neglected or is hurting and give him or her encouragement. It could be someone at work or down the street. We really have the power to make other peoples' lives better... really think about that. It is an amazing gift that you hold inside of you. I intend to start using my gift more often.
