Kindness Works

Caption reads: “Why thank you for bringing me my newspaper. You are just in time for some fresh-baked cookies.”

Does the boy have ulterior motives or is he just a kind soul who gets rewarded? Who knows. Motives aren’t always easy to figure out. All I know is I’ve been rewarded more for kindness than selfishness in my lifetime.

It’s one of those funny paradoxes. The more selfish we are, the more miserable we become. The more generous and kind we are, the more we get rewarded. Let’s go do a kind deed today-whether we are rewarded or not. Of course, I can be bribed with cookies too.

Junkyard Dog

Caption reads: “A puppy! Can I keep you?”

When it comes to kids and pets, love is blind. You can have a mangy, mean animal that looks like it should have gone to that great pound in the sky and the kid thinks it is smarter than Lassie and more beautiful than anything at the Westminister Dog Show!

I’m just glad when it came to love, my wife was blind. It gave me a chance to win her heart before her eyes opened.

Glasses and vision

Caption: “I wear glasses because without a vision, the people perish.”

Proverbs 29:18 has stuck in my mind since I first heard it as a child. We need some sort of goal or vision, don’t we? Otherwise, what else do we have to do with our lives?

Psalm 36:5-7

When I read this psalm today, the words just inspired me to doodle away.

Taking Tests

God gave Abraham quite a test! I’m glad the tests I experience are less extreme.
