Happy Friday, Friends!
I hope and trust this post finds you all having a great day as a glorious new day is dawning in my Sweet Home Alabama! This is such a special time of year! I truly hope you are cherishing this season with family and friends! 😊
This week’s Happy Friday is going to be short and sweet and not at all dissimilar from some of what I talked about last week. It is shaped and informed by my memory verse from this week and a quote I came across.
“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” – 1 John 3:18
“The day you find out who you are is when you look back and realize that it was never the words, rather your actions that defined you.” – Shannon L. Adler
Who are you? Who am I? It is defined by what we do, not what we want, think, intend to do, or say. Let’s be doers!!! Whether it is love, compassion, empathy, helping, giving, or living…let’s be doers!!! Let’s not waste another opportunity on intentions. Let’s not let another day pass before we start living. Let’s honor the lives we are blessed to live, our purposes, and every person that is placed before us by being doers!
I must share when I knew what this week’s Happy Friday was going to be. Earlier this week I was writing an email to a friend of mine. I closed the email as I always close emails, and Happy Fridays for that matter! 😊 I wrote, “Please don’t hesitate to contact me if there is ever anything I can do for you. I will always help you any way I can.” And then I wrote, “Test me on that!” It just flew out of me and after I typed it, I sat there and looked at it for a moment. I was literally asking my friend to test me on my offer to help him any way I can. In reality I was asking him to hold me accountable for being a doer. My Spirit had convicted me, and I felt inspired to be more than a wanter, thinker, intender, or sayer…I want to live the life of a doer!
Regardless of what you choose to do with this day, I pray there will be an awakening for each one of us to the truth that it was never the words, rather our actions that defined us.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if there is ever anything I can do for you. I will always help you any way I can. You can reach me at kevin@whatwillyourinfluencebe.com.
Have a great day, a wonderful weekend, please cherish your precious family, and please stay well!
