Make Me a Blessing!

Still reading the Joyce Myer book, 'Power Thoughts'. I just finished up chapter 5 this morning....it's entitled 'I Love People & I Enjoy Helping Them'.
 
*********
 
"I give you a new commandment: that you should love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too should love one another."
John 13:34
 
***********
Here are a few snippets from the chapter:
Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness....an opportunity to express love.* Get your mind off of yourself & spend your life trying to see how much you can do for others.* Be mindful to be a blessing. * We cannot live by what we feel& ever have consistency & stability. Our ability to choose is greater than how we feel & it is that ability we must activate. * We...especially  need to bless others when times are difficult for us.....because givers are happy people! * We must always go the extra mile, always do more than we have to, always give more than enough, & always be generous.
 
*********
"Be mindful to be a blessing..."
Galatians 6:10
 
*********
 
Reading that this morning made me think about this song:
 
Make me a blessing,
Make me a blessing,
Out of my life
May Jesus shine;
Make me a blessing, to some one today.
