About 8 years ago someone once told me that God had a great plan for me, and that if I allowed God in my life magnificent things would happen. At that time I believed in God but was not a real follower o Jesus. Now I have reached a point in my life where I want nothing else but to please God and fulfill the plan that he has for me. I have experienced MANY wonderful miracles in my life and i owe it all to my God.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
The more that you allow God to come into your life the more he will shine through you and use you for his good.
My work environment is not the best environment, there is juts to much drama and it's really hard to keep everyone happy. There is such a lack of appreciation and thankfulness around that place that I decided to go a mission. I decided that twice a month I would go out of my way to say "Thank You" and "I appreciate you" to 6 people that I work with every month. It would be by making them a card, getting them a small something to make them feel special...yeah even those people that are not to fond of me. It may do something or It may not, i do believe that God has a purpose for putting this idea in my heart...
I began by choosing 6 girls and gave them a small garden pot full of candy, a small flower and a home made card. Out of the 6 there was only 5 girls that where there on that day, but I still left the small token on that other persons desk. Take into consideration that I work alone in my office but I handle 2 floors of phone calls, and I transfer calls to these girls all day long. If i do get to speak to them is mostly about patient accounts and really nothing personal.
I arrived at my desk this morning and I checked my email as usual and I noticed I had a message from the one girl that had not been there the day I passed out the goodies and this is what it read...
"I returned to work today after being on Bereavement for two days to find a beautiful flower arrangement with a thank you card from you. It put a smile on my face and just made my day. I want to thank you for thinking of us and doing such meaningful things. I also know that you like to share the love of God with those who surround you and let me tell you that He must be Big in your life. Thanks again."
You know what? It made MY DAY, and on top of it all it was meaningful to me because I don't talk to that girl! We have maybe said 10 words to each other since I began working at this place. We have crossed paths many times but never carried on a full conversation...
God overflows the love that lives inside of us onto others, to bless those around us...
Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
I can't wait to see what God does next!!...
