What Will Happen Today?

What will happen today?

-Today a mother will hold her newborn baby in her arms for the first time and feel her heart open with a love she never knew she had.

-Today mothers and fathers both will play with their children after school, hugthem tight, and kiss them goodnight when they tuck them into bed.

-Today animals will be petted, fed, and cared for by loving owners.

-Today a child will learn how to be kind when she sees her Mom hold a door open for an elderly lady.

-Today wise words will be  spoken and minds will be opened in a million school classrooms across the world.

-Today clothes, food, and money will collected to be shared with the poor and hungry.

-Today the sick will be cared for, the disabled will be helped, and the crying will be comforted by so many caring souls.

-Today smiles will be shared and kind acts preformed with no thought of reward.

-Today songs will be  sung, sweet words will be shared, and laughter will be heard.

-Today adult children will gather around their Mom’s deathbed to hold her hand, tell her they love her, and kiss her for one last time.

-Today someone will finally realize just how much God loves them.

-Today a million prayers went up to Heaven on the wings of faith and a million "Thank You’s" were said to God with hearts full of love.

-Today this world will be made better by the good we do, the kindness we share, and the love we give to others.

-Today all the angels of Heaven joyfully smiled as they watched us strive to love each other, to help each other, and to live as God’s Children here on Earth.

That is what happened today. That is what happens every day of our lives here on earth. Don’t let the bad news bring you down then. Its hate and darkness can never stand against God's life love and light. Just for today like there is no tomorrow and you will see.
