During my quiet time, reading the Upper Room, one day I came across an article titled “A smiling face”. What do you think of a smile to you? A smile, will make you feel you’re welcome? Or it makes you feel nice? Or something else.
A smile makes everybody comfortable. Even when you go to a counter service, if the person smile and greet to you, you’ll feel good.
I practiced this act in my school as a teacher. I realized that the students always greet me. Even in the exercises book, when I check their exercises, I used to draw a smile face in the book, they’ll be happy to see it and it motivated them to do better in their work in future. The atmosphere was so nice and you’ll feel you’re good. Even sometimes, I’m down with matters that arises, a smile and a greet from the principal or from the colleague makes me so relief. A smile, a greet will brightened the atmosphere.
So, how about our life as a Christian to other people? Do we show a smile face to show that it is a joy knowing Christ? We are living in Christ. Sometimes, I find myself very down and unable to smile, the other people’s smile will uplift my mood. So, let us always show our smile, live up our life so that others can see the light of Christ in us. The little act of us would mean a lot to others.
Just as Matthew 5:16 says, “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven”.

Smile would definately do it magic tricks to others!
I have been trained to keep up smiles too - work, social, even in the sad time, a smile on face could keep some unwanted care away~~ when you dont want/need it right now!
Let's keep up more smile and be a blessing to others!
