Quiet Time

Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.  Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.  Mother Teresa


A church sign I passed this week said something about your faith being contagious.  I can't remember where I was when I saw this or exactly what it said, but I have been thinking about it ever since....contagious faith.

Such a good one. I think I'll write it on my chalkboard as a reminder.

hi! i really like your blog. as a christian having "contagious faith" is something i challenge myself with b/c of my introvert personality. hopefully through my actions people will catch the contagious bug! =)

Love that first quote and I think faith IS contagious. My faith really grew when I saw a friend lose her 18 month old son in a tragic drowning. The circumstances surrounding it could have destroyed her family (and the extended family). BUT they had the deepest most secure faith I have ever witnessed. They immediately dove into the word of God for comfort.
Their faith has been the single biggest factor for making my own faith grow. In fact this week marks 5 years of his death. So sad.

I have slowly over the years started to share about my faith on the blog and I know that readers have "caught" the bug a bit. Some even started reading the Bible after I posted about it. God uses us as his instruments. Thank you for being contagious. I always enjoy your quiet time posts.
