COT: Kindness & Forgiveness – Our world is filled with so much negativity and hate, yet our charge from God to be kind, forgiving, and loving. In Ephesians 4: 31-32, God calls us to:
’31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. 32 Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you’. It is profound and humbling to think that God through Christ has forgiven us and calls us to be kind and tenderhearted. Kindness and forgiveness are so important but seem so hard for so many people. As HIMs, we are called to be leaders and set an example, so I encourage you to always be kind to those around you – First and foremost, be kind and forgiving to your wife and children, and also be kind to the staff at Starbucks, the cashier at Giant, the person that walks by you at Costco, and all those around you. Kindness spreads and we need to be the light that ignites the fire of kindness in the world around us.
