A Kindness

January 2, 2022.Reading time 3 minutes.

In my New Year’s post on IG and Facebook, I shared some glimpses from my 2021 monthly gratitude lists. One of those entries was “a kindness that smote my heart.” I’d like to tell you about it.

I think it was during a leadership course at my church where I first gave the Old Testament books of Ezra and Nehemiah more than a cursory glance. The most striking thing about the narrative is how God used the pagan kings of Persia to not only allow the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the Temple, but they paid for it as well!

I watched the cardinals feeding as the wolf moon crept its way through the branches of the crepe myrtle tree. The ladies were merely chocolate brown silhouettes against the dormant earth. But the moonlight caught the red coats of the gentlemen turning them a deep crimson as dusk settled over the land.

"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

"Whatever our morning's need may be, may it like a strong current carry us to the ocean of divine love. Jesus can soon remove our sorrow; He delights to comfort us." C.H. Spurgeon

"For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith." Romans 12:3 NKJV

These cold, pollen-laden days of mid-winter make it difficult for me to spend much time out of doors.
