Matthew 25:40, 25:45
"I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.
...
"Whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me."

These passages are so beautiful. They're among my favorites.

1. Have you ever noticed that even the smallest act of
kindness, whether done by you or done for you, makes you feel so awesome? Just a friendly smile as you hold open a door for someone, helping someone who looks a bit lost and pointing where to go....letting someone ahead of you in traffic.

Jesus tried to tell us. Its the little things we do as well as the big things.

4. I love that tree in your sig line!
Can you tell me more about it? (I especially like the treble clef in the roots!)

6. I found it
while doing a Google image search on "world tree" and I just liked it. The world tree is supposed to represent the interconnectedness of all things.
