Just Because I Can.

This morning while going to collect a gift from another Youtuber at a secure locker I thought I would treat myself to a McDonalds breakfast. After sitting at the drive through for a few minutes with no one to take my order I parked up and headed inside. 

While I placed my order I noticed 4 police officers (2 male 2 female) having their breakfast, I have no idea if they were about to come off night duty or start their day but I thought here is a chance to bless someone. 

I asked the cashier for 4 bottles of pure orange juice and took them over to the officers. I was met by a somewhat shocked response as I set the bottles down, I just said "here is a wee gift for you and thank you for all you do for us". The officers were very thankful and I was on my way. 

Now your asking a few questions I am guessing, why? and What has it got to do with me?

Well let's look at Why? : 

There are a few reasons why I done it, I receive a good amount of gifts from Youtube, Twitter and Facebook followers and I thought it would be nice to bless someone outside of Youtube.  Also I truly believe this was spirit lead, I have no idea what kind of night the officers had or the kind of day they will have so maybe they will reflect at the end of their shift and see that they do matter to people. 

Now, What has it got to do with me? :

Well I would like to set you guys a challenge, whenever you read this post please look for a way to bless someone you meet, a complete stranger, a homeless person or a member of our emergency services.  It could be as simple as buying them a coffee or some orange juice but look for a way to be a blessing.  If you get asked why your doing this, just smile and say, because I can. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this, I hope you find it helpful. 

God Bless
Tom
