Monday Madness--'Pay it Forward'

Hello my fellow friends and bloggers, I hope this post finds you all well. My streak of writing came to another llong pause..I have been working at a different building the past week, and have not had PC access...and by the time I got home, if I sat at the PC to type I would have fallen asleep so my awake time, I wanted to spend with Momma and the kids. Overall I have been really good, I have been working a lot, and I miss the family. I was sad to miss Church yesterday, but I had to work. I should be back on Wed to my normal routine so the post should start to come back on a normal basis.....I wanted to just ask a question today to each of you, Have you ever paid it forward before? What I mean by this, is have you ever paid back a favor forward, for example did a good deed for someone and rather than receive monatary payment you told them to pay it forward, do a good deed for someone else. There was a movie made about this, called 'Pay it Forward' Actually a really good movie and one that you can watch with the kids. This was brough to my attention again this morning, while listening to Air1 (90.1) or air1.com, there is a church in Texas that is asking all of its members to do this. Air1 then challanged all of its listeners to do the same......so I am passing on the challange....do a good deed for someone and rather than receiving anything for it, ask them to pay it forward, do a good deed for someone else. One of the examples is to pay for the car behind you in the drive thru, just tell the person working the drive thru that you want to pay for the car behind them, if the drive thru clerk ask you what do you want them to tell the car, just tell them that God loves them, or to have a nice day. Who knows what is happening to the car behind them, that you could have just changed their life, just by doing this one deed. Do the deed, don't expect anything in return and you will be blessed...I promise....let me know if you 'pay it forward'!
