In today's first reading, it says that Tabitha "was completely occupied with good deeds and almsgiving". Here was a woman who had been touched by the love of the Savior and was now living her life in the Spirit.
Every day, we have many opportunities to extend deeds of love to others. In fact, we should look for opportunities to serve those around us: spouses, children, extended family members, coworkers, friends, neighbors. In addition, we can give alms to the poor by putting some money in the poor box every Sunday.
Like Tabitha, we have been touched by the love of Christ. Let us, then, show our gratitude to him by being "completely occupied with good deeds and almsgiving".
