A Greeting Card Changed his Day

January 31, 2011 By: The Card Sender Category: Random Acts of Kindness

When you wake up on Sunday morning you don’t expect to be caught up in a phone conversation prior to church. At least I don’t. I like to wake up and chat with my wife, eat breakfast and prepare my mind and heart for my sunday school students. Just as I am settling into my normal morning. I had chatted with my wife, had just about completed my breakfast…then the phone rings.

I hesitate answering it, after I see that the number is from a family member in Ohio. I thought to myself “now, they know I go to church on Sunday morning, what in the world could be so important?” Then I thought, someone could be ill or perhaps d…no, don’t want to go there. I pick the phone up, it’s my older brother. He started talking fast and I could not understand, so I asked him to slow down.

What is it? I said. He slows down and shouted thanks for the greeting card. I almost said what card but then I remembered sending him a card full of faith verses to help him as he was going through some life issues. He was so happy. The thought of his happiness touched my heart.

He finally ended the phone call and I had just enough time to get dressed and leave for Sunday School. You can imagine how I felt. Also the conversation provided a good lesson for my Sunday School class. The greeting card sent eight days ago changed my brothers day for the better.

Everyday we have the opportunity to change a life with a smile, a kind word, a friendly handshake, and yes, a heartfelt greeting card.

I and Me, Greeting the New Year

January 05, 2011 By: The Card Sender Category: Personal Development

Hello all,

I am greeting the New Year with me. Not a new version of me, really, just me. Think of it as bringing in the New year with your best friend.

After reading the countless changes that people are promising to make for the new year. I think I’ll just stay me this year. I and me did alright last year and I am pretty sure we will do alright this year. I, can say that because I love me as I am. Yea, sure, I’ll improve, but I am making no promises to do so. I and me, you see, have this great relationship, where I tells me when things need to be tweaked or changed. Then me does it. I, never makes a promise to me, but I does make commitments to me, and together we are successful.

Take some time to get to know the I and me in your life. Don’t allow them to hide behind them and us, find yourself. Start asking I and me, self absorbed questions like; How can I help me? What can I do for me today? Make a list and start making it happen. I and me will thank you for it later.

It looks like I is getting impatient with me…I’ll have to finish up. (smile)

Make sure you emphatically greet me with an “I Loves Me” every day. It makes me feel great, when I does it. Nope… no promises here, except that, I and me will be the best of friends, like we’ve always been.

Warmest Regards,

T. Lawrence
