Individual Kindness

It has been said that “a man is great only as he is kind.”  This is short saying, but it reaches across a lifetime.  The mistake with many of us is we have spasms of kindness rather than a continuance of kindness.  And for some of us is easy to be kind on special occasions.  But it takes grace and knowledge to be kind all of the time and under all circumstances.

We think of Moses as a great person and the Bible says, “He was the meekest man on earth.”  Meekness and greatness associated?  That’s what the Bible says.

It is said of Jesus Christ that He loved children.  That’s what the Bible says.

It is said of Jesus Christ that He loved children.  One of His best known statements is “Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not for of such is the kingdom of God.”

If we had more kindness and less competition, we would live in a better world.  We could understand each other better.  God could bless us, and our victories would be much greater than what they are at this time.  Kindness is usually something you talk about for the other person, but in order for you to produce kindness it must begin within your own heart as an individual.
