Today I am sharing with you the Christmas Movies that I have watched this weekend-

Christmas Reservations

Four Christmas and a wedding

A Country Christmas

There is something about Christmas Movies, I really love them.

I really do.

I love spending my weekends just relaxing and watching movies.

What are your favourite Christmas Movies?

I would love to hear from you.

Let’s encourage each other.

I have been thinking about random acts of kindness and I love random acts of kindness.

I love them.

Today’s random act of kindness is to write a card for your neighbour.

Do you know your neighbour?

I know that in some neighbourhoods it can be difficult, but what If we put all this aside in this Christmas season and just wanted to bless someone?

What if we wanted to make a difference in our neighbourhood and spread the Christmas message?

How lovely would that be?

I live in a complex of 12 units, now I don’t know all my neighbours but I do know a few.

Last weekend I had my youngest niece stayed over and she was creating, my niece decided that she would send a letter to one of my neighbours.

She got herself an envelope and some paper and wrote a message, we then went to the letterbox and she randomly chose a letterbox to post her letter.

I loved to see the excitement and wonder of a seven-year-old posting a letter to someone that she didn’t know.

It was so exciting for her as she looked at all the numbers on the letterbox and then choose the one that she wanted to send her letter to.

She really wanted to encourage someone.

Now I do not know what happened when the neighbour received the letter, but I do hope that they realise that they are valued and a seven-year-old wanted to encourage them.

Let’s embrace this and post a letter to one of our neighbours and let them know about Christmas.

Let’s encourage on another.

I would love to hear what happens.

Today’s random acts of kindness is to bake some biscuits for someone.

Find a recipe and bake some biscuits for a friend, a co-worker, for a neighbour, for a family member.

Surprise someone this December.

Choose a recipe that you love or try a new one.

Bake the biscuits and place them in a box or a tin.

Decorate the tin with a beautiful ribbon and include an encouraging note.

Take the time to bless someone today.

I would love to see how you have blessed someone.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Today my idea for a random act of kindness is to smile.

Yes, smile.

When you smile at someone that you don’t know, you do not know what they are going through.

We really don’t.

There is something about smiling at someone that you do not know.

You do not know what this could mean for their life.

It could mean-

• Thank you
• I have been noticed
• I have been acknowledged
• They have seen me

Today be encouraged and smile at someone.

Today decide on a charity to donate too.

I find that this time of year I want to help others and I know that this year has been difficult for a lot of people. I am so passionate about giving back, I really am.

Some ideas for you to donate could be too –

• buy a present
• donate food
• your time
• money

or

• buy locally
• support a small business.

Think about a charity that resonates with what you are passionate about.

Maybe this year you could choose a different charity to donate to.

Maybe you could be creative with your time and helping others.

I would love to hear from you.

Let’s share ideas and encourage each other.

My thought for today is to send a letter or encouraging postcard to someone.

Last year in the school holidays I decided to bless people by sending them an encouraging message in the post.

Now, I had not brought a stamp for a while I really hadn’t.

I remember going to the Post Office and asking the person behind the counter, how much is a stamp?

The person behind the counter said one dollar, this is Australian dollars.

I love creating cards and then writing encourages message to send and bless other.

Who are you going to send an encouraging message to?

I would love to see what you design.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

You are amazing.

I love coffee, I really do and I love catching up with friends for coffee.

Today’s random act of kindness is to buy someone a coffee.

Some ideas to surprise someone with a coffee are-

• You could buy a coffee for someone at work
• You could pay for someone’s coffee behind you at the shop
• You could pay it forward at a coffee shop
• You could write an encouraging message on the take away cups lid
• You could surprise them by leaving a coffee on their desk
• You could give them a voucher for a coffee
• You could take someone out for coffee and see how they are going.

I would love to hear about how you have shared a coffee with someone.

If you need a coffee let me know, I would love to catch up with you.

Yesterday I wrote in my blog about Christmas time and how much I love this season.

I also spoke about how people are wanting to help others at this time.

My thought for Random Acts of Kindness day two is –

Send an encouraging message or quote to someone.

Today I would love to send you an encouraging message.

I love quotes, I really do and I have many quotes hanging up in my offices at both of the places where I work.

I also have quotes in my house that I love.

I love designing quotes, I really do.

If you would love to receive a quote please message me and I will send you one.

Why not do a random act of kindness and design your own quotes and leave them in random places.

Why not bless someone and inspire them.

Some ideas to leave quotes are-

-on someone’s desk

-in their letter box

-email

-on social media.

How are you going to send someone an encouraging quote?

Who are you going to send an encouraging message or quote to?

I would love to hear from you.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, I love this time of year I really do.

There is something so special about this season.

It is like someone who you love that is giving you a warm hug.

It is like someone saying miracles will happen.

I love the feeling of this season and how people want to help others.  

I love how people want to bless others.

I love how people give to help others.

I love how people want to help others.

I love how people notice others.

This year I brought myself a wooden house advent calendar.

I am hoping to place in the draws 24 days of random acts of kindness.

I love random acts of kindness.

I really do.

This year I am going to do 24 days of random act.

Starting today.

Starting today I want to encourage you, you the amazing person reading this post.

I don’t know what you have been through this year, but I want you to know that God sees you, he notices you.

God said he will never leave you or forsake you.

Be encouraged.  

He has a great future for you.

I would love to hear what you are doing in this Christmas season.

I would love to hear what random acts of kindness that you will be doing.

Let’s encourage each other.
