in that little smile

One among the things which I find can make difference in our days is this: to appreciate others and honor their presence. When I look deeper into this, this is the first gate we go through if we want to pass on our love to others. Simply pause ourselves, look at their faces and feel their hearts through their eyes then we can start our ministry of presence to them, in the Lord's mercy. Yes, I admit that sometimes the thoughts, concerns and cares can be very demanding our (my) attentions. And I think it's good for us to stay focus on what we need to do as our responsibility. However, as long as it is in our power to stop the activity for a while so that we may offer help to others, it will be very beneficial.

This is very related to the attentive state of heart. We always keep watch and catch every opportunities given by the Lord in our days to glorify Him even through the least that we can do. When we are willing to be faithful in the little things, He is pleased.. and out of His love He'll entrust us to do great things. Let's have at least the desire to welcome others and to spare what we have -life, time, attention, care, belongings, money- to them in Love, and let's follow what the Lord doing in Scripture and our lives. Let's look to others in peace of heart... by gentle gaze, sincere smile and mindful listening... through small gifts, honest compliments. It's always good thing to give thanks to God for the people whom He sends us; and also to honor their presence and appreciate them ;)!
