Acts of Kindness
Little acts of kindness
Word of the Week
And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening; and he lifted his eyes and looked and there, the camels were coming. Then Rebekah lifted her eyes, and when she saw Isaac she dismounted from her camel. Genesis 24 verses 63,64
The bible yet again shows us a perfect love story worth noting. Rebekah was minding her own business doing her daily chores. There was nothing strange about her going to draw water; it was the time all women went out to draw water. What made this time special and set apart was not her chore list, it was her character. She saw Abraham’s oldest servant, a regular man, who had been sent by Abraham to go and find a wife for Isaac from his country. Unbeknown to Rebekah, her time had come. She could have missed “her time” if she had not gone the extra mile, beyond the call of duty, of giving water to the camels. It is my understanding that a camel that has traveled the whole day drinks about 200litres in one day!!! She knew that but she was willing to help the stranger. That was her task, to be herself and go the extra mile, feeding the camels. It was not easy because it took a while to water 10 camels with one pitcher. Her character, kind heart, and willingness to help ushered her destiny. She did not know that the camels she offered to water WERE HERS! I want to believe that if she knew that before hand, she would have behaved exactly as she did without knowing it.
Well, maybe you are contemplating about doing something good for a stranger, like you have already helped them before, why now again situation. The stranger you help today, is the stranger who may lead you to your next season. We never stop doing what is right Your going the extra mile should not be for that reason only, but it has to be a way of life. Soon, who knows, in the midst of a field, on your journey, you lift up your eyes and behold…there is your Isaac, all this time, meditating.
