Accountable kindness

What a great end to a character building year! I've had a month off writing my blog and have been concentrating on my children's book which my husband has commented is more like a novel but when I get my head into something I love I can't stop!  I just thought it was really important that I share this most valuable piece of inspiration with you all. I have made it my new years resolution and I'm sure when you read it you'll be inspired to do the same.  I was reading "Fathering a destiny" by Bruce Lindley when I read the most challenging few lines that have made me want to be so much more precious with my words and thoughts.  It actually comes from the heart of Heidi Baker and here it is... She asks God every night if she has been kind to everyone she has been with that day.  I've started doing this and wow, as the day passes along I find myself accountable for every word that comes out of my mouth and now even more so I have even taken kindness into my thoughts too.  Instead of getting irate at the christmas drivers on the road I'm finding myself making excuses for them, tired, stressed, the poor things how can I show kindness to them? No more pulling the bird out the window of my soul.  Be inspired to do the same. What a better world we would all live in if we asked ourselves and those who believe asked God, "have we been kind to Everyone today?" So if you haven't made any new years resolutions yet, make it this one, it could be life changing for you and those around you.  Watch it rub off as you explode into others terrains with kindness!

Also I wanted to thank all my readers for your support throughout 2012.  God bless you all xx
