It's always a bit of a crap shoot, because you never know if they're ordering a coke or dinner for a family of 5, but that's just part of it.<br /><br />I'm sure you'll pay it forward the first chance you get, Michelle.katdishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210738418270395622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817241909677069838.post-82386792644648557212010-09-14T22:28:05.733-04:002010-09-14T22:28:05.733-04:00what a kind thing of her to do.

My entire house was cleaned in that amount of time. Now THAT was a wonderful act of kindness! ;-)<br /><br />I like to pull the "drive-thru" act of kindness. Whenever I treat myself to a sausage biscuit before heading to work, I always pay for the person behind me. Then, while driving the rest of the way to my job, I pray for that person and his/her family. It's a great way to start my day.Beth E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04996230415386423039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817241909677069838.post-90378261972279740672010-09-10T16:05:52.590-04:002010-09-10T16:05:52.590-04:00Thanks everyone......it def. get me a boost of &qu...Thanks everyone......it def. get me a boost of "hope" when reflecting on our world.<br /><br />Joyce....yes!

It's not a book you just "read" really, intended more for a small group study, but man is it full of ways to "pay it forward" or as we say at Thrive Church, "pass it on."herbhalsteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14695097127328778324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817241909677069838.post-19677650081444193042010-09-10T13:27:48.292-04:002010-09-10T13:27:48.292-04:00Inspiring!

I love that.<br /><br />When we were moving in here I went thru the drive in at Burger King and ordered two coffees. When I pulled around to pay I realized I'd left my wallet at home and only had enough change in the car for one. The girl at the window said not to worry and to go ahead and take the second coffee. A small thing but still it made my day. <br /><br />Enjoy your weekend...I'm so glad you didn't have to give up the ice cream!Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727615822243830106noreply@blogger.com
