Be Good to Everyone
This is an area where Jesus is challenging us to be 'all-inclusive' regarding our interactions with one another. Groups, social/religious sects, political standing and other social statuses should never determine how we interact with one another. We are being called to give freely to all, with no expectation attached to the action. Whether it is time, resources, or simply ourselves. Be a blessing to people...all people.
There is a stretch for us in this spiritual mandate because it requires denying the flesh. Despite the fact that you may experience a decrease in your popularity, leaving you subject to various forms of social shaming. Do not be surprised if you get the 'side-eye' for this; not everyone is on board. Jesus was the greatest example of being non-discriminatory in the area of relationship-building. He sat at the tables of all social classes and everything in between. Unfortunately, even his disciples could not comprehend the lengths Jesus would go for a life and for God's will to be done. But it was this kind of conviction that led to the global impact that we are all witnessing today. There is so much power in the liberality of love.
Affirmation: I freely express love to everyone.

About this Plan
Love your enemies. Be good to everyone. Have mercy. What exactly does that look like? It's more than biting your tongue and holding your peace. Or, refraining from responding to a hateful deed. It's more than not going out of your way to expose a person after receiving VIP access to a shameful fact about them. This call to action requires us to examine the 'love' department in our lives.
