The Good in People



I had another post plan, but I felt I needed to write this one, first. I think I have grown jaded when it comes to people, so much that I have forgotten there is plenty of good in everyone. For example, I was planning on paying someone to mow the yard. When I got home, the yard had already been mowed. This person didn't even want any pay. One time I cashed my check and the money inside an envelope.  I must have been tired because I didn't even know I had dropped the envelope on the ground. Lucky for me a teenage boy was behind me and told me what I had done. He didn't have to. He could have picked it up and had plenty of candy money for at least three months. Well, depending on how much candy he could consume.  He could also just keep going. I was so surprise I wanted to hug that child. An amazing little girl once wrote that people were really good at heart. May God help me to remember those words when I don't see the goodness in others right then.
