First Act of Kindness

NOVEMBER 13, 2020

Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus, who risked their own necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches.
Romans 16:3-4

 Recommended Reading: Romans 16:1-16

Lily Ebert was a teenager in Auschwitz. She had nothing, not even a piece of paper. But an American soldier who helped liberate her gave her a special gift. It was a German banknote on which he had scribbled the words, “As a start to a new life. Good luck and happiness.” It was the first act of kindness Lily could remember, and she remembered it for years. At age ninety, she rediscovered the note while going through some papers with her great grandson. They quickly tracked down the identity of the soldier—Pvt. Hyman Schulman, a Jewish-American soldier who served as a chaplain’s aide. Though Schulman passed away in 2013, Ebert is now in touch with his children.

Everyone needs a word of encouragement, an act of kindness, and the gift of friendship. Though we may not always be together, our bonds of fellowship are enduring. And our relationships are strengthened as we serve each other.

Why not write a note or say a kind word to a friend today?

Good words are worth much and cost little.

George Herbert
