--MAKING A DIFFERENCE~~

"Do to others as you would
have them do to you."
--(LUKE 6:31 /NIV)

--TWO MORNINGS a week I take the bus into town. I find that bus ride an uplifting experience. I am constantly struck by the presence of God in the lives of the people around me. The drivers are kind and caring, often waiting for people who are running late to catch the bus. They greet everyone, not just the regulars, and go out of their way to help those with disabilities. Similarly, the kindness of the passengers is an inspiration. If anyone needs help, two or three people will immediately offer assistance--by giving up their seats to those who are frail and elderly, by lifting heavy suitcases, and by helping mothers with strollers and children.

We often think that we must do great deeds to make a significant difference in the world. However, my morning bus ride reminds me that small acts of kindness done by ordinary people are just as significant. What a lovelier place our world would be if all treated other people as we ourselves would like to be treated. We can serve God faithfully every day by showing kindness to one another. Isn't that how Jesus lived. He still lives today through us, His people. Let's shine His light in this dark world. "Christ in you the hope of glory.".
