Random Acts

Knighten stood in the checkout line with a $200 grocery bill, a crying baby and
a declined credit card. That’s when 28-year-old Matthew Jackson stepped up and
asked if he could cover the cost. Knighten agreed when Jackson said he wanted
nothing in return. He simply asked her to do the same for someone else. A week
later, Knighten called Jackson’s boss to tell of his kindness. The manager
began to cry. Less than 24 hours after Jackson paid Knighten’s grocery bill, he
was killed in a car accident.

Blessed is he who is generous to the poor.

Knighten
quickly created a Facebook page called, “Matthew’s Legacy.” Soon there were
people all over the world responding who agreed to share a random act of
kindness. In fact, when Jackson’s sister and brother-in-law were driving to the
memorial service, they stopped with their four children for a meal. When they
finished eating, a stranger had already paid their bill!
When someone receives the priceless gift of salvation, generosity flows out of that gratitude. Look for opportunities to randomly bless others in 2016. Pray also that America’s Christians will be generous people, and that the nation’s leaders will practice more random acts of kindness with each other.
