GRANDPA SAYS – “THINK ON THESE THINGS” - John Gray
As you go, be an encourager – love intentionally, redeem the time, be a blessing to others and leave folks better than you found them. Brighten the corner where you are. Leave footprints of love and kindness wherever you go. Be an encouraging builder of hope – just like Jesus. Be someone who makes everyone feel like they have value. Make a positive difference in someone’s Life. Be willing to lower yourself for the benefit of the others. Be willing to make your interests and purposes subservient for the good of other folks. Never underestimate the power of planting the seeds of the Gospel or giving encouragement --- “He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Jehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God?” (Mic 6:8).
Folks, there are two questions we must answer each and every day of our journey through this world: (1) If a blind person could hear you, could they tell if you were a Christian? And (2) If a deaf person could see you, could they see Christ living through you?”
