Something to Think About
Go... Make a Difference

Let us not become weary in doing
good, for at the proper time we will
reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Works For Me Wednesday: Is Your To-Do List Working For You?

By Alan

It seems funny that the inspiration to write a blog post about writing things down came from another blog post about writing things down. Lifehacker included a reference to It Didn't Happen If You Didn't Write It Down.

One of my favorite productivity blogs is 43folders. Merlin Mann has been writing a blog about productivity and getting things done for over five years, and has wonderful insight into why people do terrible things to themselves in the name of productivity. But, he does it with such humor and funny insight into people's behavior, that it's fun to read.

One Word At A Time: Kindness

By MAD21

I love Random Acts of Kindness. Not in the humanist way exactly, because I think they do it for different reasons. I think when a Christian practices these random acts, it should be with the motivation that the person on the receiving end of those acts of kindness would see Jesus through them. In other words, the act of kindness is not about you, but is about the other person and what Christ can do for them.

I wonder, however, if acts of kindness shouldn't be... random. As one of the God-given fruits of the spirit, maybe we should look outside of ourselves more often and actually look for times when we can show kindness to others.
