10. Now, let’s flip that question a little. The Lord tells you to reach out to someone you hurt in the past. Do you do so or do you ignore the prompting of the Holy Spirit out of fear?
You should do what he tells you. Regardless of your own feelings. Give it all to God.
11. Oh gosh, you are running late for work, grab a quick cup of coffee, get dressed quickly, slip on a pair of shoes and jet. When you arrive at work people snicker when you walk in because you slipped on two different pairs of shoes. What do you do?
Laugh with them…or take your lunch break going to get a pair that matches.
Or cry…..when they see you crying, they will stop laughing…maybe.

Take “The Awesome Impact Award” Picture and add that in your post.
Talk about an incident that impacted your life in a really positive way.
Nominate 10 other awesome bloggers for this award.
I appreciate your writing and you. You have been one of those “sunbeams” in someone’s sunshine.
This is a good award , like mine, it focuses on those around us, who with or without trying impact another’s life,
I guess for me to point to a specific time in my life when I was impacted in a positive way, would be unfair, There have been so many times in my life when I felt like I was alone in my own feelings, alone in my personal battles, and alone as a human , period.
I would have to write about the first person who came in my life when we both were just kids, in a little country church. Her mom and my mom worked together and we both were around the same age but we really did not socialize. Well, not then we didn’t. She was a girl that kind of kept to herself, and her two sisters. She was pretty, I always thought. I remember standing behind her in the church pews and admiring her long hair. I know that seems odd, but she had the prettiest hair.
She had two sisters and two brothers who semi attended church. She seemed to be the quietest of the bunch. Her brother would go on to be the pastor of this little country church. Her mother was a strong Christian lady and she was always at church and trying her best to rear her children up in the love of the Lord. I admired her so.
Let’s go ahead in time to when we became friends for life…
Her name is not important but she and I soon took up as life long “sisters” and friends. She has given me more support and love than anyone on this planet, excluding my family of course. She loves with everything she is and her all. She is a beautiful soul and a beautiful person. The way she accepted me and has loved me along some of the most terrible times in my life, is immense. I never knew a better friend and her whole family has adopted me to be their own. I love them all and her especially.
Her love has tremendously impacted my own life and her eagerness to be in my life and to have me in hers can never be repaid. She is very unselfish and very giving. If she were to read this, I would want her to know, she is the brightest star in the darkest journey I have ever had to walk. I love her and I hope she knows that.
This week I am sending out the award I made, the RAKA award, the random act of kindness award.
I came up with this award because so many of us are touched by random acts of kindness, and they are worth mentioning.
All through life we encounter people who for no aparent reason help us, or extend a hand when needed. Some do it directly and some do it indirectly.
Rules are posted on original award post, but here is a recap.
1- copy or paste image for reward on your post.
2- Write a paragraph on a random act of kindness, either you saw, was given to you, or you have done. It is okay to spread the love people. You don’t have to name specific names or what evers but tell us about it.
3- Share this award and link to original post or tag the person who nominated you.
4- If you should want to do this then you can leave an open ended invitation, or personally tag others.
5- Pictures are a good share to, if you have pictures to share a random act of kindness, that is great!
I have seen all sorts of awards circulating through WordPress. I thought why don’t I come up with one to. So I have.
Random Acts Of Kindness Award, RAKA
This award is given to anyone you think shows kindness to another blogger or writer or to the community here on WordPress.
If you know someone who has shown you or anyone else an act of kindness please nominate them for this award.
I believe that any act of kindness no matter how small can significantly impact another’s life. So I feel it is great to acknowledge those who practice kindness.
The rules are simple.
1- Tell who you nominate and why.
2= Copy and share the picture that shows the award, posted above.
3- Share a paragraph of something that impacted your own life in the way of receiving kindness or how you extended kindness to someone else.
