Little Good Deeds

“With good will render service, as to the Lord, and not to men” Ephesians 6:7 NASB)

We all need kindness, generosity and friendship. Sometimes a little effort to do good has far reaching benefits. Some people live on very little and a little money can secure them a meal. Some people are very lonely and a smile and encouraging comment from you can save them from desperation. We can all contribute to making someone happier or suffer less.

Tabitha (also known as Dorcas) was known for her service to the poor. Her passion was to use her mastery of the needle and thread to make clothes for the widows of Joppa. They so depended on her kindness that when she died they prayed for her resurrection. (Acts 9: 36-42). What can you do with what you have in the time you have? Will your presence be missed? Nothing good you do to others is ever lost.

“Never get tired of doing little things for others, some times these little things occupy the biggest part of their hearts.”
