Love Does Kind Things
1 Corinthians 13 is the Bible chapter on the attributes and characteristics of love. The Apostle Paul starts with the first two characteristics in verse 4. “Love is patient, love is kind.” I believe he starts off with these two attributes of love because these are sometimes the toughest acts of love we can show as Christians, but it will be the most important and effective ways to show God's love to others.
Have you ever heard of the phrase “kill them with kindness?” It’s easy to be kind to the people you like or those who are nice to you, but what about those who have offended you? What about that person who cut you off on the way to work, or that person who said something mean to you, cursed you, or stole from you? One of the prime actions of love is to do kind things instead, and that is what God has called us to do. Read 1 Peter 3:9.
When you respond with forgiveness, a gentle answer, or a blessing instead of a negative retaliation, you’re not killing the flesh, but you are killing that offense, grudge, curse, anger, or evil coming against you. You are now stepping out of the flesh and into the supernatural way of loving with kindness. Who knows, maybe your act of kindness toward someone will be the first experience they have of the loving kindness of God.
Point of Action:
Remind yourself of a specific time God has shown you His loving kindness. Ask Him to show you how you can love by doing something kind today to someone in your life who isn’t expecting it.
