Let's Put Our Fruit (of the Spirit) on the Table

This month I have shared about the Fruit of the Spirit, Kindness. Today's world really needs a lot of this attitude/disposition. If Almighty GOD's kindness had not been shown to us in His death on the cross in Jesus for our sins, no amount of our kindness would have any meaning. It's only our willingness (through salvation in Jesus Christ) for Him to use us for His purposes that renders His true kindness in us toward others.

May we always reach upward for His kindness.

GOD's Kindness Is Everlasting

Luke 12:27-28, "Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor. Yet, not even Soloman in his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how GOD clothes the grass of the field, how much more will He clothe you!" GOD's kindness in the beauty of His creation is manifested in reborn "man who is made in His image." (Genesis 1:27)

Grow in the kindness of Almighty GOD in Christ Jesus through the Holy Spirit. Don't allow the wilds of the world weigh you down with the burdens of life.

Start Your Day With GOD's Loving Kindness

Proverbs 3:6, "Listen for GOD's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He's the One Who will keep you on track!" The best time to do this is when you start your day. Begin your day with GOD's Loving kindness in thanking Him for what He has blessed you with. There are so many others who are not as fortunate to be so blessed. Praise Him throughout the day for His Loving kindness and close your day thanking Him for His Loving kindness to you in that no matter what happens in this life, you have eternal Life with Him forevermore!

I Corinthians 14:7 speaks of the different sounds of the instruments. Have you ever heard an orchestra tuning their instruments before they begin their performance?! What a jumble of sounds! However, when they are all in tune, what a beautiful sound comes from their instruments. Let us be in tune with His Holy Spirit and what His kindness has for us each day. Share that kindness with others who need His Loving kindness, so they too may come to Almighty GOD's salvation in Jesus Christ through His Holy Spirit!

Kindness Doesn't Leave You Hanging

Kindness always draws people toward those giving it. How much more so our Almighty GOD's kindness to mankind. The greatest kindness is Jesus' redemption offered to mankind. It goes beyond comprehension. Accept Him today and watch the blessings of kindness He brings!

Don't be left hanging on for dear life! Know for sure your eternal salvation in Jesus Christ!

The Many Facets of Kindness

We are what we say, do, and think. Kindness also works this way. 

Isaiah 55:11, "So is my word that goes out from my mouth; It will not return to me empty." Make sure your words are those of kindness! I would rather have kindness returning to me than unkindness.

Matthew 7:12, "In everything do to others what you would have them do to you..." Even to those who reject your kindness, the seed is planted for the LORD to work in their hearts.

Job 21:27, "Behold, I (GOD) know your thoughts and devices which you wrongfully imagine against Me." GOD knows everything we think, make sure it is things of kindness!


Secure yourself to Jesus, the Rock of our salvation!

Kindness Not Only Helps Others, It Helps You Too

Have you ever been at your "wit's end?" Have you been on "overload" and can't take on another thing? Or, is everything happening at once? Today's fast lane of life surely can slow down when we have others who show their kindness through a gentle smile in passing, a joyful hello with smiling eyes, or a kind hand of help when you've dropped a hand load of things. Do you feel spread out too thin?

Stop, take a moment to show a little kindness and what you send out will return to you in the kindness of others coming back to you!

Acts 20:35, "It is better to give than to receive!" Kindness is a gift from our Almighty GOD. Share His kindness with everyone you come into contact with. The kindness you sow your will surely reap.
