Unasked Answers

Romans 13:30 - “Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;” 

          We have all been sidelined from what are commonly known as ‘unanswered prayers’. There are some wishes and desires that we have sighed and wept over; petitioned and appealed for; begged and fasted for; and yet they remained for the most part - unanswered.   But what about those wishes that we might not verse or share with others yet somehow they end up being checked off of our ‘to do’ list.  There is such as overwhelming sense of joy and favor when we are the recipients of random acts of kindness.

         Well faithful reader this is my charge to you today. Open yourself up to the leadership of the Holy Spirit as he directs you to be the shining star in assisting someone else today.  Your act of consideration and kindness will not fall upon blind eyes or deaf ears. While those you are helping may never know it was you who came in at the midnight hour, there is a rush within our souls when we learn that our random act of love has made someone happy, even if for just one day. When you help someone unexpectedly, especially if it is in an area of need,  that is an unasked answer.  NO question was asked. No favor was sought. But the giver knew the receiver’s need and fulfilled it.     

     Unasked Answers may be the solution for someone’s problem today.  They may not know how to ask for help or might feel embarrassed that they even need assistance.  Sometimes it is pride, but it could be that they might be a bit overwhelmed by the issue and are too embarrassed now to ask.  Find a need and fill it.  Who knows on your way out to do something kind for someone; another person could be targeting you for their expression of love.  Watch out there now!!
