Everybody can be great…because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.

I started on my #SelfRenewal tip, step one was running, I wanted to introduce healthy habits to my lifestyle. I came to see that I was SUPER ambitious about this and wanting to run everyday became a bit spotty. Especially after long nights out. Need to work on that !
The second step in my self renewal process, making a commitment to myself to learning more. That step was easier, I learned to speak less and pay attention to what others were saying. Trying to learn something in every conversation I have.
I just decided on the third step – I think it should be Giving Back ! I know that sometimes I can get really caught up in my life, I forget how many blessings I have. Much of our daily life activities can be used as opportunities to give back; I know I don’t even realise sometimes.
I want to make it a commitment to give back, regularly. I am really interested in volunteering a few hours with children, trying to map out right now which organisations would be good for that. Although I really want to get involved hands on, its mostly living out something I have always told myself I would do more; just now getting to it. I need a shift, a lesson in learning to be more grateful. There are many other things you can do to give back that fit within your schedule, your skills etc.
How do you do to give back?
