30 Day Challenge of Kindness

I would like to go ahead and post this challenge two weeks in advance.  During thirty days of October, my friends and I have decided to be shining examples for Jesus Christ by deliberately giving a gesture of kindness during each of those days.  I want as many people as possible to participate in this, especially if you are a Christian who struggles with the apathy, timidity, and shyness that so many Christians have today... and I think we all struggle with those things. 

We can be united as one, sharing God's love everywhere we turn. 

If you would like to participate in this challenge, then please comment below.  If you're a fellow blogger, then feel free to take on this thirty day challenge as part of your blog!  If you like to take pictures, send them to me at emilytheperson@yahoo.com or give me a photobucket link in the comments below, and I will feature them on my blog. 

October can be a month for expressing kindness and sharing the love of Jesus.  And perhaps after we have deliberately shared acts of kindness for thirty days straight, kindness will become a habit that will be a natural part of our lives.

I'm rallying supporters here.

Who's with me?
