Food for Thought

30 ¶ And, behold, two ablind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David.
31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David.
32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?
33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
34 So Jesus had acompassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received bsight, and they followed him
Matthew Chapter 20

Jesus stood still. He didn't just, "Oh, their faith will help them," and go on giving a miracle while walking. He also had compassion on them. As we go through today, I hope we take the time to say a kind word and give a smiel to those we know and a complete stranger. You never know what anyone is going through and how difficult it is. Maybe you taking the time to stand still, say hello, and smile will be what keeps them from taking their life or another person's life.
