This morning I woke with praise in my heart. As I got ready to go volunteer at the Fort Mill Church of God food pantry, joy filled my heart. On the ride there, I asked my husband Ron if he ever woke up with a song in his heart. He said no. I’m curious if other people wake up like this. I said, “ You know that worship chorus, We lift you up, we lift you up, we lift you up, we lift you up, we praise you, we praise you “. I just wanted to lift my hands in worship and praise God.
There is just something special about doing something for others. It takes the focus off yourself and your issues. It gives you a chance to bless others. Every community has opportunities to help others. It could be visiting a shut in or watching a child so a mom can take a break. It could be just taking time from your busy day to text someone to encourage them. Many churches, ministries and schools have many opportunities to get involved and be a blessing. In giving the gift of yourself, you receive the gift of joy. Go be a blessing today.
