Acts of Kindness....
We have been on the receiving end of these acts lately.
If you follow my blog you may have read my post Pride...do I have too much?
I detailed how it is VERY hard for me to allow people to do things for me. I fully recognize that I have surrounded myself with people who are like me in many ways. People want to do something, they WANT to help and get nothing in return. That's how I am. I'm always on the other end however, I know how it feels to want to do something for someone willingly with no attachments or expectations in return. It's in my heart.
Well it was on a few of my friends hearts to want to help us.
A friend of mine who has a christian entertainment company; Good Medicine Entertainment puts on a gospel skating party every year before his annual play. This year he added Mylah to his efforts after a discussion among a circle of friends we share.
At first I wanted to decline his request, only because I know how people are. There may be whispers and/or questions, but what those people don't realize is that this is a blessing. To have people care so much about us, our well being and the comfort of our family is great and no matter what you do & how you do it people are going to have something to say, be it positive or negative.
I appreciate everything our friends have done for us. No matter the size we are grateful for all acts of kindness. We love that we are loved and that our daughter is LOVED.
I've realized that I've prayed and asked GOD to step in & take control over this situation. I'm learning still to realize when he's allowing that to happen and to allow the people he's sent to do what he's instructed them to do.
