Micah 6:8 NCV “The Lord has told you, human, what is good; he has told you what he wants from you: to do what is right to other people, LOVE BEING KIND TO OTHERS, and live humbly, obeying your God.”

Kindness is a super weapon, not a weakness. Evil people will show you themselves quicker when you’re kind. They say to themselves, “I’ve got me a fool.” It never fails. Then they do and say things that reveal who they are. They underestimated the kindhearted. Sometimes you have to play the role of a fool in order to fool the fools who think they are fooling you. Kindness disarms your enemies. And it heals friends. Kindness is like a double-edged sword. It is so powerful.

God wants us to love being kind to others. People though are afraid to do this. They fear being taken advantage of. They think the kinder they are the more they will be hurt. Yet they still get hurt anyway while being mean. Being stone-faced and stone-hearted doesn’t stop anyone from experiencing heartache and pain. Actually, this brings more suffering. It takes courage to be kind. To not care about how others perceive you or how you will be treated. True kindness doesn’t expect things in return Jesus says. (Luke 6:35)

The world frowns on good-natured people. But God loves them. I guess it’s all about, who we want to please: God, or the unkind world.

Colossians 3:12 NCV “God has chosen you and made you his holy people. He loves you. So you should always clothe yourselves with mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.”

Ephesians 4:32 NCV “Be kind and loving to each other, and forgive each other just as God forgave you in Christ.”

Proverbs 16:24 NCV “Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, making people happy and healthy.”

Romans 2:4 NCV “He has been very kind and patient, waiting for you to change, but you think nothing of his kindness. Perhaps you do not understand that God is kind to you so you will change your hearts and lives.”

Colossians 3:13 NCV “Bear with each other, and forgive each other. If someone does wrong to you, forgive that person because the Lord forgave you.”
