“Who is/are my Neighbor(s)?”

Luke 10:25-37 answers this question better than Miriam-Webster dictionary. The scripture shares a story of an individual (just like you) who took care of someone else, with zero expectation of reward or compensation. There was a neighbor in need and you had the resources, combined with compassion, to transform someone’s world. It is that simple. Keep it simple.

Love everyone, everywhere, every time. (especially during interruptions)

Thank You!

“Thank You” is an action

Do “Thank You”

Here’s a few suggestions. For someone else: open the door; give a plant; sweep the sidewalk; pay for the drive-thru order behind you; bake and deliver cookies.

Say “Thank You”

Words are powerful. Use them to change someone’s world. Thank someone for being your neighbor, postal worker, teacher, friend, firefighter, cashier, nurse, doctor, receptionist, pastor, your family. Do it today, either in person, by mail, or by phone.

Invite “Thank You”

“For where two or three gather in my name, there I am with them.” -Matthew 18:20 (NIV)

Invite others to join you on your “Thank You” mission and you will not only change the world of the one you are thanking, you will change the world of your company. This is why the entire office staff signs the birthday, retirement and get well cards. There is power in the numbers, and may you have many.

Repeat “Thank You”

Make “Thank You” a priority, everyday. Much like filling up your car, eating breakfast, brushing your teeth and putting on shoes, every single day will be much more refreshing, enjoyable, pleasing, with “thank you”.
