To make someone’s day.
To change someone’s life.
To make a difference.
So easy.
Really.
SO EASY.
Drop a friend a quick note.
Send an encouraging text message.
Tell someone you are thinking about them.
Remind someone that they are valued.
Let someone know that they are forgiven.
Say a prayer.
It is so easy. Yet so powerful.
This is a reminder to make today about something bigger than you. Bigger than the Super Bowl.
Go do it. Right now.
A special thanks to two friends who made my today brighter by simply saying something I needed to hear. Alece and Matthew, thank you!

Great post, Lindsey! Really it is so easy to make someone's day; I know how easy it is for me to perk up when people let me know I am valued and special to them. And yes, it is bigger than the Super Bowl. I don't even like football!
What a good reminder. We don’t do that often enough for people who are important to us. Life gets too busy, but should never be too busy for others! Thanks.
Such an important reminder….This is something I try to do daily…I know how much something like that means to me. A kind word, a sweet note….. so simple yet so deeply touching.

Great reminder. I think we get so caught up in our own lives and how busy we are that we forget that it only take 30 seconds to send someone a text message that may brighten their day or even their week. Great post!
My recent post Will You Pray for Us?
I often have ideas of things to do for people – an email, card, cake, etc. But then I often talk myself out of it, especially if I am not very close to the person. I always worry they might think I am weird for doing something out of the ordinary. But I am realizing more and more that this is how God made me. He gave me eyes to see needs and if I don't use that skill, then I am just like the man who buried his talents. So I am learning to get over myself and just act on my first inclinations.

It is easy for me to think about how much I need that from others, but to forget to offer it to myself to others! Great post!
