Practicing Honor, Day by Day 4

“…Love is kind.” I Corinthians 13:4 (NIV)

Today find a way to honor a “landscape” person in your life. Consider the people that are part of the backdrop of your life. You see their faces, you may know their name, but you do not know much about them. Some “landscape” people may be your mail carrier, your child’s school bus driver or teacher, your cashier at Walmart or the grocery store, the customer standing in line behind you, a neighbor who walks their dog on your street, or a delivery person.

You may be the only person they come into contact with today who will offer them a smile, a kind word or even a random act of kindness. Let someone go in front of you at the checkout line. Leave a candy bar in your mailbox for your carrier. Take a casserole to a neighbor. Pay for a stranger's coffee or lunch.

Find a way to bless someone today!

Heavenly Father, I know that You choose to place people in my life each day. You are a God who is “on purpose,” intentional in all that you do. You are also a God who is on time and You know who needs to experience Your love today. Lead me, I am Your willing servant. Where You lead me, I will follow.
