Anyone who is old enough would remember the TV series “Touched by an Angel”. It was a popular drama series that had Angel Monica bring guidance to the people she encountered.

In this fast-paced and incredibly busy world, it is very easy to not commit to small acts of kindness. Even when they are done, we easily overlook them.

Keeping in mind that everyone comes into our lives for a reason, we should not take anyone for granted.

Ordinary people might be angels in disguise. Like in the series, everyday angels do not necessarily have wings. However, their small acts of kindness may make a big difference in your world.

They are good Samaritans who extend a helping hand, offering support and compassion in diverse ways.

As it is written of the Good Samaritan, “But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him” (Luke 10:33).

This verse encapsulates the essence of what it means to extend love and a helping hand to others. Which is to take action when we see someone in need.

These modern-day angels can be found everywhere.

This Valentine’s Day, let’s broaden our perspective to include acts of kindness and compassion. Let’s celebrate the good Samaritans who make our lives brighter with their selfless acts. These angels among us deserve our recognition and gratitude.

After all, the spirit of Valentine’s Day is not just about receiving love but also about giving it in all its forms.

Finally, and until later, let us be the angels who touch the lives of others.

Thank you.
