And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.--Ephesians 4:32
Some of my favorite words in the NT: AND BE YE KIND ONE TO ANOTHER...
There is so much personal grief, sadness and heartache in the lives of the people that we meet and interact with each and every day...most of which we will never know this side of eternity. All the more BE YE KIND...merciful, mild, gentle, compassionate, pleasant, good, benevolent. Be imitators of God as dear children for His compassion fails not and extends to ALL:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.--John 3:16
AND it is the goodness of our God that leads us to repentance.
Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.--Romans 12:21
