Kindness is a choice. Sometimes, when we feel happy or generous, we find it easy to be kind. Other times, when we are discouraged or tired, we can scarcely summon the energy to utter a single kind word. But, God's commandment is clear: He intends that we make the conscious choice to treat others with kindness and respect, no matter our circumstances, no matter our emotions. Kindness, therefore, is a choice that we, as Christians must make many times each day.
Kindness, compassion, and forgiveness are hallmarks of your Christian faith. So today, in honor of the One who first showed compassion for you, it's your turn to teach your family and friends the art of kindness through your words and deeds. And then, you can open your arms wide to receive the gifts that God has in store for believers who are willing to obey His Holy Word.
Thoughts For Today.

A Tip For Today.
Everybody is important: Everybody is important to God. And you should treat every person with courtesy, dignity, and respect.
