Angles amongst us

I believe that people everywhere have a desire to do good. We either don’t see it, do a bad job at judging character, or don’t look for it.

People everywhere want to help. 

Why do I say this? 

My mom and I have been in Europe the past few days and we don’t speak French, German, or Swiss. We might understand a couple words, but it’s hard. Everywhere we go we see different languages. The train stations, airports, cities, restaurants, etc. 

In each country/city we have been to so far we have randomly ran into someone who spoke decent enough English to help us. Or when we didn’t happen to run into anyone, we just started asking around to see if anyone did speak English. Whether we were on a bus, or a train we’ve just happened to find people who were willing to help us. 

This was crucial in our trip. If we wouldn’t have had any of those encounters, our trip would not be going this well. We probably would’ve gotten lost, frustrated, etc. 

I encourage you all to look for the good around you, if you need help with something, people will help you. If you ask and someone doesn’t help, ask again. It’s all about having an abundance mentality. 

There are an abundance of people all around who are willing to help, we just have to ask. My challenge for you is to seek out good people around you. My other challenge is to be that good person, if someone needs help, help them. 

Put those peoples need above your own because you understand what you are doing and they probably don’t. Let’s that sink in..

I like to think of all these good people as angels and they’re a perfect glimpse of the kingdom of God. I believe God puts all these people into our lives for a reason and that’s to show us how real the kingdom of God is and it’s to fulfill his promise. 

We serve a God who is so good to us, we just have to be aware of his goodness.
