Smile

Peace begins with a smile.

— Mother Teresa —

Random thoughts…

I enjoy long runs, and long bike rides on the scenic trails offered to us by Miami and Montgomery Counties.

Being alone with nature gives me peace, and while enjoying that peace, I try to share it with others.

I share it by smiling and giving a quick wave to those passing from the other direction.

Sharing a smile with another human being calms my spirit. I’m assuming it does the same for those with which I share.

Mother Teresa never lied.

Questions

How’s your smile these days?

Are you using it to spread peace to the world?

Philippians 4:7, “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”


Journal your thoughts:

What am I grateful for today?

In what way(s) will I bring light to the world today?

What will I deny myself so I may draw closer to God and gain more peace in my life today?

Prayer:

God, I offer myself to Thee—To build with me and to do with me as Thou wilt. Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do Thy will. Take away my difficulties that victory over them may bear witness to those I would help of Thy Power, Thy Love, and Thy Way of life. May I do Thy will always! Amen. (Third Step Prayer – Chapter 5, pg.63, The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous)
