If we always do just a little more than we have to, we\u2019ll end up being a blessing to many. For example, if you\u2019ve eaten at a restaurant and your meal was $8 and you pay with a $10 bill, you could leave a $1 tip, or you could do a little extra and tell the waiter to keep the rest. It\u2019s only a dollar, but it\u2019s a way of doing a little something extra.<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\">If we treat people with generosity, we will find our own blessings increasing. We\u2019ll have more joy, and God will bring a harvest of good things into our own lives. Don\u2019t be the kind of person who only does what they have to\u2014always go the extra mile.<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\">One day I was checking out at a bookstore and my change was a little over a dollar. I noticed a collection box at the register asking people to give their change to help hungry children. My first thought was, \u201cI don\u2019t have to do that, I give all the time.\u201d But my second thought was, \u201cI don\u2019t have to, but I\u2019m going to, just to go the extra mile.\u201d It isn\u2019t difficult to figure out which of my thoughts was from God and which one was just my own mind. I gave the change and of course I never missed it, but my small extra gift was enough to feed a child for an entire day in a third world country like India or Africa. What seems like a small thing to us is often huge to someone else. Do all you can, as often as you can, for as many people as you can. This is the way God wants us to live.<\/p>\n<p class=\"white-frame selectionShareable\"><strong>Prayer Starter:<\/strong>\u00a0Father, thank You for all the ways You\u2019ve blessed me. Please show me how I can go the extra mile to be kind to those around me today.
