If you have eased some aching heart today,
Or helped to carry burdens not your own;
If you have spoken kindly by the way,
Or in some darkened household comfort sown,
You need not say this day has been in vain;
But wait for earth's tomorrow with a smile,
For you may carry joy where there is pain:
The little things in life are those worth while.

How can we be kind today? How can we do a little thing that might encourage someone else?
a phone call
a card in the mail
praying for someone and letting them know
a word of encouragement
a small gift
a meal
What may seem small to you, could be significant to the recipient.

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted,
forgiving one another,
even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Love these sweet Abby!!!! I hope you are doing so good dear friend, hugs and love, Dawn
Good ideas for shoring someone up! It really is all about the little things. I snagged this one for Pinterest and even managed to create a special folder for it. I'm getting very Pinterest savvy now...ha! Right.
Abby, I've always loved this poem and paired with a beautiful graphic, it's just wonderful. Thank you so much for the encouragement you provide for us through this sweet blog. God bless you.
Your blog encourages me! Thank you for posting the Word.
A post that resonates with my heart. I do have some cards to get out and Wednesday a meal for a sweet new mother and father. Love the little ones card and poem.
I am so grateful I found your blog. Thank you for your ministry.

Thanks for the sweet reminder...it is the little things that mean the most indeed.....blessings dear friend.
I like to make cards to encourage! Writing a note! Just touching base sometimes means so much to me when someone does it for me & when I do it for others...! Or make them something special in my kitchen!
Thanks for the LOVELY graphics Abby! SOOO PRETTY!!!!!!! :)
Kindness, the miracle worker, especially when done in His name!
Thank you Abby for yet another inspiring moment!

THANKS FOR THE POST AND SWEET BLOG!
Thing in life get so busy, that I often forget that all the little things that I do matter a lot to those that are the recipient of them. It has been a goal of mine lately to do all for the glory of the Lord, and thank you for the reminder that it's not just big things we do for the Lord that get noticed, but all the little ones as well!
God Bless You!
I just love your blog, I have found it few minutes ago!
