Kindness in the Cultureનમૂનો

We’re living in a time when it’s only about me. What I think. How I feel. What I want.

And if I have to harm you with my words or my actions in order to get what I want, well too bad. We see this attitude on display in the news every day. This kind of evil has penetrated our culture, but it should not be this way with God’s people, for it is not a reflection of God’s heart.

The Bible tells in Romans 2:4 that “the kindness of God leads you to repentance.” In other words, God holds back from giving us the kind of response we all deserve. We treat Him with disrespect and ignore His commands, but He doesn’t give up on us every time we fail. The reason? It’s because of His kindness.

So, since we are the recipients of such kindness, God expects us to be ambassadors of kindness here on the earth. He doesn’t just want you to be nice; He wants you to be kind. Kindness is more than a personality trait. It’s an action. Kindness shows itself in the way you treat others.

How has God shown kindness to you?
