“Let your light shine before men that they might see your good works and glorify God” Matthew 5:16.
You are the conduit of the gift, not the receiver of it. If you order a package for your child, they wait with anticipation and excitement for it’s arrival

“Whenever you find tears in your eyes, especially unexpected tears, it is well that you pay attention. They are not only telling you something about the secret of who you are, but more often than not God is speaking to you through them of the mystery of where you have come from and is summoning you to where, if your soul is to be saved, you should go next” Frederick Beuchner, Beyond Words
”He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.” 2 Corinthians 1:4

In the words of Bob Goff “just call it Tuesday, that’s what people who are becoming Love do”
You don’t have to wait to go across the world. You might just need to go across the street, or even across the hall.
