A Kindness
by Barbara Philbrook

Today I was shown a kindness, one beyond measure,
and it gives my heart an uplift, one I'll always treasure.

Though giving gifts has always been a precious joy to me,
receiving something made in love is really rare you see!

Giving to others lit my world which was dark and grim,
till God disclosed salvation was being offered to me by Him.

Making things with my own hands and giving them away,
has always been an "I love you" I was trying to convey.

To open up the package that you just mailed to me,
filled me with a joy I'll feel throughout eternity.

Thank you for the kindness and the love it does convey,
you have touched my heart in a very special way.
