The Upper Room 29th November 2022 Devotional: Inspiring Kindness

by Chibuzor Nwaobasi

Welcome to The Upper Room 29th November 2022 Devotional, Tuesday Message written by Lisa Stackpole (Wisconsin, USA)). As you study today’s devotional, remember this; “Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval. Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (NLT)

TOPIC: Inspiring Kindness

TODAY’S READING
Matthew 13:3-23

Jesus said, “The seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” – Matthew 13:23 (NIV)

When I think about bearing fruit for Christ, I remember a story I once heard on the news. At the drive-through window of a coffee shop, a customer spontaneously paid for the order of the next car in line. It was an act of pure kindness and generosity. When the next car reached the window and discovered that the person in front had already paid, they were so touched that they, in turn, paid for the order of the next person in line.

This chain of generosity continued for more than 200 people. Upon discovering that the person ahead had paid for their order, each customer was inspired to pay for the next person’s. The kindness was contagious. I imagine that the person who initiated this beautiful chain of love had no idea of the fruit that this one act of kindness would bear. This incident inspires me to obey God in faith and not worry so much about the outcome. I am convinced that when we obey Christ’s command to love others, it will bear fruit, even if we don’t personally see the results.

TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear God, help us to show spontaneous acts of love every day. Amen.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
With God’s help, my single act of kindness can inspire many more.

PRAYER FOCUS
Someone who has shown me unexpected kindness
