Weekend Kindness
Reaching Others Through Kindness

There’s a verse in Scripture that says faithful are the wounds of a friend.  A true friend is someone that not only does the easy things, but the hard things. A true friend is there with you through trials, and tells you what you need to hear. Those that show you the most love are those that do something– not because they’ll enjoy it, but because they know that it will make you happy.

Take, for instance, blogging. My wife tolerates my blogging, she reads a few of the blogs that I’ve found, and she’s not as into computers as me. And yet, she wrote a post and a comment on my blog– not because she wanted to or because she enjoys writing, but because she loves me.

That’s a small one, I know, but think about how much your spouse does for you every day. If it helps, make a list of the common and uncommon things– but focus more of your time on what he/she does for you without being asked every day that she could be, instead, doing something that they enjoyed.

Don’t take your relationship for granted, and thank them for even the ordinary things!
