"Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act." -Proverbs 3:27 (NIV)
Watching the news reminds us that there is a lot of evil around us. We need to be careful, because even through there is evil around us, there is good in the world. We may see or experience goodness in our lives. We may also know people that deserve good in their lives. It is important that we don't just focus on the evil, but that we also recognize the goodness in the world around us!
When it is in our power to recognize the good in others, we should do it! There are many ways we can recognize goodness. We can give a compliment. We can offer a tip or gratuity. We can perform acts of kindness. As we recognize goodness, we can rejoice and share God's love. As we share God's love, we can continue to encourage that spreads out and travels beyond ourselves and our personal circle. We have God's love and the power to act, we just have to do it!
Act in God's love and power to recognize the goodness around you!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your love, power, and goodness. Help me to embrace Your goodness and love and allow me to recognize the goodness that I see around me and experience. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
