Random Acts of Kindness

Last night we were at Disneyland - and we experienced a random act of kindness that made our night terrific. We were there for Gigi's 6th birthday, with 3 of her best friends (see photo below)That is saying a lot already when you think of crowds pushing, pulling, crazy moms and dads all trying to get their kids a spot at the front of the line to see Minny and Mickey - imagine what it is to have two adults, out numbered by four kids....and then try to get to the front of the princess parade.....

Our day started bad, when we got caught in 2 hours of traffic, and missed our dinner with the princesses. But our 4 princesses in the car were so flexible, they were totally okay! And God made up for it in rapid fashion by granting us many favors in the park with one kind person after another....

We had second row seats at the parade, two ladies who had waited a long time - moved just like that and allowed our 4 girls to take their seats. Wow....they sat behind the girls. Random acts....I loved it. Well let me just say it was better than the dinner, every princess stopped and blew kisses to the girls, goofy, donald duck, the seven dwarfs, peter pan, everyone was taken by the four princesses all dressed and full of charm.....it was a magical night.

Sure those ladies could have held their ground, literally, but they saw a chance to do something nice, and they took it.....why? What can we do today not because we are Christian, but just because it is a nice, kind and good thing to do for another person......what if you never told another person you were a Christian? What if they knew it by your love, your kindness, and the good you were about on behalf of others......

They will know you by your love......
