10 Ways To Be A Blessing

1) Pray!
  You know that homeless guy on the corner or the stressed out momma at the grocery store? Breathe a quick prayer up to heaven before grabbing the next thing on your shopping list. 

2) Smile!
  Be the sunshine in a dreary day and warm someones heart with a cheerful attitude. You will also give yourself a better day!

3) Sing!
  Especially for your family. Sing while you do the dishes and laundry - even if you are dreadfully out of tune. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound...

4) Give!
  Even a small gift - like a handwritten 'happy' note or a piece of chocolate - to friends and strangers alike, will brighten their day. 

5) Laugh!
  Call your silly friend or sister up and just laugh. Tell them of your crazy life and let laughter work it's healing effects.
6) Praise!
  Compliment others around you on their good work. Let them know you care about them and their life.

7) Encourage!
  Teachers, bosses, parents, this ones for you. Maybe they didn't play their music perfectly or spell everything right, but tell them to keep going and press forward. 

8) Bake! 
  Oh yes, the age-old way of blessing through food. New neighbors? New baby? Bake them some lovely treats. Baking not your thing? Even a treat picked up from the bakery is a blessing.

9) Host!
  Even if the house is a disaster, invite someone over for a cup of tea and talk. (Even if you do have a crazy house, just talk on the porch!) Or, invite that shy family over for a meal and get to know them.

And last but not least....

10) Worship!
  When you are constantly praising God, others will see your attitude, and sense something different. Who know, maybe you will open the door of salvation to a lost soul.
