Kindness is Love in Action
February 17, 2025
Romans 2:4 Are you unaware of His rich kindness, forbearance, and patience, that God's kindness is leading you to repent?
Kindness is love in action, as God demonstrated toward men.
Ephesians 2:7-10 So that in the coming ages, He might display the limitless riches of His grace that come to us through His kindness in the Messiah Jesus. For by such grace, you have been saved through faith. This does not come from you; it is the gift of God and the result of actions to put a stop to all boasting, for we are God's masterpiece created in the Messiah Jesus to perform good actions that God prepared long ago to be our way of life.
Have you ever noticed how much of Jesus' life was spent doing kind things? He was kind to others. His kindness was His love in action and is infallibly remembered. Since God is kind toward sinners, a Christian should display the same virtue.
2 Cor 6:6 with purity, knowledge, patience, and kindness; with the Holy Spirit, genuine love, truthful speech, and divine power; through the weapons of righteousness in the right and left hands;
Col 3:12 Therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.
"I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again."
Drummond, H. (1890). The Greatest Thing in the World.
1 Corinthians 13 Love suffers long and is kind
Kindness is an ingredient you need in your life. Kindness is eternal and worth giving time to. As you look back over your life, the moments that stand out are when you have done things in a spirit of love and kindness. Let every act of kindness be laid at God's feet as a sacrifice to Him. For with such sacrifices, God is well pleased. They are to Him a sweeter savor than the sweetest incense. And as we offer them to Him in faith, they will bring our hearts the assurance that we are well-pleasing
Ephesians 4:32 Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving one another just as God has forgiven you in Jesus Christ.
