I can remember while growing up with my two brothers, that there were times that one of us “committed the crime, but all of us, did the time.” Sometimes my parents would punish all of us, because even though we may not have been guilty, at that time, they knew there were plenty of things that we were guilty of, and just never got caught. (They were right!)
I also realize, that in my life, while growing up and competing in sports, that there were times that I was the recipient of a winner’s trophy, even though someone else was responsible for the heroic win.
Romans 5:18 (NLT) Yes, Adam’s one sin brings condemnation for everyone, but Christ’s one act of righteousness brings a right relationship with God and new life for everyone.
Even though Adam’s sin brought judgement on us all. The one act of grace on the part of Jesus Christ on the cross, brought freedom from sin for us all.
The word of the day is, one act of kindness.
One act of kindness can make an eternal difference. Never underestimate what one act of kindness can do for others. It can definitely make your day better.
