Day 6. Be kind
Verse (King James Version)
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
Ephesians 4:32 (KJV)
Read
Being kind is easy with friends and harder with people we find annoying. This verse mentions forgiving too, because kindness sometimes means letting something go. It also says why: God has forgiven us. We are not being kind to earn anything, but because we have been shown kindness.
