How To Be A Blessing to Others...

So, how can a person be a blessing to others? Hmmm...I was actually asked by a friend to write about this topic and so here I am with my thoughts.

As I start to figure out how one can be a blessing to other people, I have realized that sometimes, it is the small things that make an impact on other people's lives. A person becomes a blessing when he or she:

1. Smiles and says hello to a stranger.
2. Pays the fare of an old woman or man who is totally a stranger.
3. Lends money to somebody who needs it.
4. Buys a stranger a water when he or she knows that he or she is thirsty.
5. Pays for the bill of the food when he or she knows that a friend doesn't have the money.
6. Serves as an inspiration to a person at times when he or she already wants to give up.
7. Humbles himself or herself and helps those who are in need.
8. Shares his or her time, talent and treasure to others.
9. Makes herself or himself available to people who need somebody to listen to them.
10 Prays for those who are sick and dying.
11. Becomes a witness of God's genuine charity and love to other people.
12. Supports the noble cause of a friend or an institution.
13. Volunteers to help in the community project that is for a good cause.
14. Says, "I love you" and "I care" to somebody who is down-spirited.
15. Cooks and prepares food for the malnourished children of a community.
16. Shares his or her own food to people who are hungry.
17. Does somebody a favor like pay one's bills because the other person has no time to do it and is so busy.
18. Lightens one's day by doing him or her a favor...take the person to snacks of dinner and have a friendly talk.
19. Shares his or her clothes to others who do not have something to wear.

I have also asked some family and friends about it and here are some of their responses:

YOU ARE A BLESSING TO OTHERS VIA YOUR GOOD DEEDS, ACTIONS AND RHETORIC FUELED BY YOUR UNUSUAL GENEROSITY. HOW? LOVE, RESPECT, HUMILITY AND SERVICE. BE YOURSELF."

"when we give to the needy, we do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men"...(Matt 6:2)

Hmmm...See? There are many ways to bless someone's day. Sometimes it doesn't really require much effort on your part to make a big difference for someone else.

Be BLESSED and be a BLESSING!
