The Domino Club offers encouragement to those who want to be challenged to reach out to others. It’s about showing other people your human side. It’s about showing up when someone needs your help. It’s about showing God you heard Him tell you to love your neighbor.
I created this club to unite those of us who want to be more than we are. Life is growth. We can push ourselves beyond our current boundaries. We can enlarge the tent of our experience and let others into our lives.
A house is made of many bricks. But without mortar, it isn’t strong. A community is like that house. Just because many are living in the same place, doesn’t mean that community is a great place to be. Every community needs love. It is the mortar that bonds people together and makes the community strong.
Generosity is one of the facets of love. I’m interested in growing in generosity. If you are too, then join with me in taking small steps to make big changes.
Generosity is more than giving money to a charity. You can give money, but you can also give something you made. You can give your time or possessions.
Think of how many people you know who are already spending their days giving to others. Many people already sacrifice their plans for the benefit of those that need them.
Some people can’t see their own needs. If you see their need and give to help them, you could turn their day around. Do you know people who seem self-centered, alone, maybe even a little crabby? It is possible that with the gift of your attention, affection, or innocent surprises, their whole life could change for the better.
Today’s goal is: Find someone who needs a little attention and let them experience unsolicited unconditional love by giving them a simple card.
Choose someone of any age. Make or buy a card and put your own encouraging message in it. Hand delivered cards are always appreciated. If there’s someone in your life that could really use a note of encouragement, but they live too far away for a personal delivery, then send them a card in the mail.
