Random Acts of Kindness

What useful lessons can we share with our most cherished little loved ones?

A kind word, a gentle act, a modest demeanor, a loving smile, are as so many seeds of kindness and love that we can scatter every moment of our lives. Seeds which will always spring up and bear fruit.

Through our own actions and behavior, we might show them to be good-natured, kind and sharing, keep a cheerful expression. Try to please, to console, to amuse, to bestow, to thank, to help others. Try to do some good to the souls of others! An earnest word, some encouragement, a prayer softly breathed.

"For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?"
1 Peter 3:10-13

"And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God." 1 Peter 4: 8-10

“children, let us not love in word or speech but in deed and in truth.”—1 John 3:18

"Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment." Benjamin Franklin
