The pictures above are a way of expressing how life can get when Monday starts. Mondays have a reputation for going wrong. It seems as if everything can go wrong - makes people angry, impatient and a little too expressive.
You and I can make a difference in someone's life by simply giving them a quick, cheerful phone call. A simple, "How are you today?" or "I was praying for you today, how's it going?" or "I called to say I love you and that even in the midst of your problems, you would know you were cared for" would make an incredible difference in the lives of co-workers, friends, and family.
A kind word, a patient word, a thoughtful lift is like opening the door to a bright future. It pulls people up out of the dusty ground they are on and leads them to a verdant grassland. Why not call someone today!?
1 Corinthians 10:31 says this: 31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
