Encouraging WORD of the Day

   Posted by: BearyAnn   in Encouraging Words

 Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life.

Philippians 2:14-16 NLT

As we pass through each day we touch the lives of so many people without even realizing it. The person you bumped into at the store today was upset until she heard you apologize sincerely; that person that cut you off in traffic noticed that you didn’t gesture or yell, and your children saw that you took time to look each of them directly in the eyes when you asked them about their day and you listened to their description.
OR did it happen that you bumped into someone at the store today and brushed past complaining about how some elderly people should stay home; then when you were cut off in traffic you cursed (they could read your lips), gestured and then tailgated just to be sure they knew of your anger; and when you children wanted to tell you about their day today you told them you didn’t have time for that nonsense.
You are a shining light. How brightly is the path you are walking?
