I Spy...

I Spy…

Matthew 5:16

Hey, Got A Question For You ~

Do you agree with this statement: “Everybody is being watched by somebody”? Let me ask it another way: “Who do you notice or watch?”

In the office, do you note how a coworker or employer conducts business? Do you notice if your neighbor faithfully walks the dog or if they always wave hello when they check the mail? What about how others eat, how much salt they use or if they don’t eat the bread? Do you observe if someone is consistently friendly or sour, even if you don’t know them very well? Parents, do you watch how other parents, parent? Married couples, do you notice how other married couples treat each other? Do girls watch boys? And on and on it goes…news flash ~ People watch you, just like you watch them! Even my dog, Herschel, loves to go up on the top porch of our house and spy on all the neighbors in their backyards.

Be encouraged today. What you do matters. It matters to someone. I don’t know who it matters to, and more than likely neither do you, but I can tell you it does. I love this quote: “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring – all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”

My prayer for us is that we would be so full of the love and peace of God that we will spill out all over the place! Someone is watching! “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven.” Matthew 5:16

Hope & Glory! to You ~ Love
