Try A Little Kindness

Try A Little Kindness

Every day we are faced with many choices. But one of the most important things to choose is to begin our day with words of kindness. When we choose our words wisely, we can brighten someone’s day and bring much joy to our own hearts! On the other hand, our negative words have the power to divide and destroy.

Family & Friends are one of God’s greatest Blessings. So let your ‘kindness’ begin with those whom you love and care about so dearly.  When you wake up and in the morning before your feet hit the floor, invite the Lord into your day and ask Him to help you choose your words wisely.  For our actions and reactions set the mode for the whole day.

If you tend be snappy & grumpy in the mornings, just remember this:  God doesn’t just ‘suggest’ we be kind and loving toward each other … HE Commands it!!

God’s command:  “My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. (John 15:12)

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

Yes, there will certainly be those moments, but be aware of how you treat others.  Your compassion, respect and love may be just what lead’s them to the heart of Christ!!

Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. (Philippians 4:5)

Purify yourselves by obeying the Truth so that you have sincere love for each other; love one another deeply, from the heart. (1 Peter 1:22)

Prayer:  “O God, I ask that love, respect and compassion flows freely from my heart to all those around me…especially to those whom I love so dearly!”

“Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting … Don’t only give your care, but give your heart as well”. ~ Mother Teresa
