HELPING: by Chuck Swindoll

One of my favorite speakers and authors wrote this in his daily devotionals and I was reminded again of this from the Pepsi boxes we were using to make the paper bead jewelry. DO GOOD!

"Well, it's mid July and time to make a mad dash for the pool or at least a tall, frosty glass of iced tea. But while you're swimming or sipping, think about helping. Yes, helping.
Think about being of assistance . . . your arm around the hunched shoulders of another . . . your smile saying "try again" to someone who's convinced it's curtains . . . your cup of cool water held up to a brother's cracked lips, reassuring and reaffirming."

"C. S. Lewis once likened his role as a Christian writer to an adjective humbly striving to point others to the Noun of truth. For people to believe that Noun, we must improve our adjectives for attractive adjectives plus unselfish verbs equal faith in the Noun of truth." Chuck Swindoll.
God's word mandates: "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds." (Heb. 10:23-24)

So, while you are sipping that frozen lemonade, think about how each one of us can make a difference in someone's life today.

God's blessings to you all, Jane
