“And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” – Ephesians 4:32

I read something that deeply touched my heart about a PGA golfer named De Vicenzo. As he was leaving a golf course with his winnings, a woman approached him and said, “I have a baby who is dying.” Moved with compassion, he endorsed the check and gave it to her saying, “Take this, and try to buy some happiness for yourself and your child.”

A week later he was in the clubhouse having lunch, and one of the PGA officials came up to him and said, “Did you know that the woman who approached you last week didn’t have a baby dying of an incurable disease!” And De Vicenzo said, “There’s no baby dying? That’s the best news I’ve heard all week!” What an attitude!

Do you ever feel like people are going to take advantage of you? Be thankful today that God keeps the score.
