In one of my past newsletters, I asked if we could find anyone to bless in our communities.
For this article, I thought I'd elaborate a bit on that idea and list
a few of the different things that we can do to bless someone else, to let the light
of Christ shine on. Below, I've listed some things that we can do for another without having to spend any
money.
We can pray for
someone else. It can be about anything at all. Believe me: you don't
have to sound like the preacher or the prayer leader does on Sunday mornings. God responds to
honest, unselfish, heartfelt prayers from someone who is praying out of love. He's not interested in
fancy words, He's interested in the motivations behind the words so don't
worry about what to say. In my experience, God always answers when I ask Him
to swaddle someone in peace and love especially when they've had a bad day or
an off day. One or two people that I've prayed for told me that they don't
know what happened, but a feeling of peace stole over them. Try it, you'd be
surprised at how fast that God acts.
Another thing you
can do is pray for someone who is financially strapped. You'd be amazed at the
miracles that God works. After all, everything--even our money--belongs to Him
so it's His choice who He decides to bless with it. You can even ask Him to
bless another in a way that it's obvious to the recipient that the blessing
came from God. I love to hear people give the glory to God for every good
thing they receive.
We can help an
elderly person rake leaves or pull weeds in his or her yard. Before my neck went
out, I used to do this for my mother and my grandmother and it always
brightened their days. Almost nothing is more satisfying than helping another.
In this day and age, since it comes as a surprise whenever anyone does something for someone else
without expecting something in return, even if what you're doing seems like no
big deal to you, the
person you're helping will be grateful.
Let your small
children help you do something. Kids love to help with anything and
everything. Even if your children are only capable of putting a few leaves or
weeds into a trash bag, or helping to pick up the mess from wrapping Christmas
presents, you're still blessing your little ones by letting them help. Never
forget to thank your children for all of their
hard work and make sure to tell them that they did a great job. By doing these
things, you're
instilling values in them that will go a very long way, even into adulthood.
Making sure to thank them for their hard work encourages them to jump in
and help the next time, it empowers them to look for ways to help.
This one is such a
simple thing, yet so many of us overlook it due to our hectic lives: telling someone to
have a great day. You'd be amazed at how positively people respond when you tell them to
have a good day or a good evening. From first hand experience, I can tell you that working a customer service oriented job can be harrowing. Near the end of the day, it's hard to keep
that smile on your face. For the most part,
any position in the customer service field is a thankless job where you
oftentimes see
the worst of people. Some people can be downright rude and unless you have
thick skin, so to speak, it's difficult to bounce back from some of the insults
you receive.
Clerks, cashiers,
managers, waitresses and waiters are so used to telling their customers to have a good
day that they're pleasantly surprised when a customer tells them to
have a great day or evening. What's more, when you see their faces light up
and a smile instantly blossom, you
know you've done something good. You know that the light of Christ has just
shined upon that person. Don't forget about your children or husband or
wife too. By biding them a good day, you're wishing them well. Have you ever
heard about the "ripple effect"? This rule applies perfectly to this
situation. When someone is blessed, they in turn look for others to bless. Try
it... you'll see that you'll feel better yourself by doing this.
If someone you know
is sick or has just gotten out of the hospital, you can take them a meal or
help him or her around the house. You can run errands for him or her such
as grocery shopping, or running to pay a bill or two.
Sometimes I'll do little things like do a few loads of laundry for my sister-in-law or my mother-in-law or do their dishes when I know that they don't have the energy for it. The result: their days are brightened, they see the love of
Christ through my actions.
There are plenty of other things you can do to bless another that I haven't even thought of. Just listen for the Holy Spirit to prompt you on ways to bless another. If need be, go ahead and ask God to show you a way to bless someone else.
Eventually,
death knocks at every door. It often comes suddenly, without warning, and without mercy. Survivors miss the familiar voice, the
personal touch, and the intimate companionship of deceased loved ones. Amid grief and pain, many wonder, Is it possible to
talk to the dead? Surprisingly, millions are answering, Yes. Unquestionably!
Perhaps you haven't noticed the ghostly
trend, but dialog with the deceased is fast becoming a national obsession. Best-selling authors are writing about it, TV talk shows
are discussing it, and research scientists are studying it. For those who have done their homework, it has become crystal clear that
a supernatural world does indeed exist, and invisible entities are speaking from the other side.
Yet hidden danger
lurks "beyond the veil." Unknown to most, spirits can lie, and ghosts can deceive. The last book of the Bible sounds this sober
warning, "For they are spirits of demons, performing signs..." (Revelation 16:14). With penetrating insight, Demons in
Disguise explains this apocalyptic phenomenon and provides solid biblical answers to the perplexing questions of life, death,
and the afterlife.

Google has a system that makes it possible, for the first time in the history
of the world, to deposit five bucks, write a couple of ads, and
instantly get access to over 100 million people - in less than 10
minutes.
It's called Google AdWords and it's hot. In fact it may
be the first and best thing to do to get traffic to your site.
But
it's not always as easy as I just made it sound - AdWords has some nuances,
and most people have a rough time at first. I know I did at first.
Well my colleague
Perry Marshall has written a very helpful e-course called "5 days to success
with Google AdWords" and there's no charge for it. You can find out about
it here:
