Therefore, as God’s chosen people,
holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves
with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
Colossians 3:12 (NIV)
Jesus, thank You for sending that angelic someone today who helped me up after I tripped on a curb and fell. The humiliation of it all was far worse than the inevitable bruises, but the kindness of that one gal who reached out to help me made all the difference.
Later in the car I melted into tears, because I was so overwhelmed by the kindness of a stranger. May I too clothe myself in compassion, for this world is broken and needy and longing for kindness.
Questions for Pondering…
What are some acts of kindness that I have shown in the past that have meant a lot to someone?
What is a kindness I can extend to someone today?
