The best cure for worry, depression, melancholy, brooding, is to go deliberately forth and try to lift with one’s sympathy the gloom of somebody else.

Arnold Bennett

The best portion of a good man’s life,

His little, nameless, unremembered acts

of kindness and love.

William Wordsworth

You will find, as you look back upon your life, that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others.

Henry Drummond

For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Ephesians 2:10

Dear Lord, Thank you for the promise of Your word. Thank you for the opportunities you give me to help another. Help me to realize when someone needs me. Take my hands to reach out and do your will. Allow me to be a colorful rainbow in someone’s life today and may my colors always be brilliant and bright reflecting your love to those around me.  Amen.
