“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” (Ephesians 4:32) Great scripture! To be kind means having or showing goodness or being helpful and considerate towards others. Compassionate means feeling or showing concern for others. Forgiveness is the act of intentionally letting go of negative feelings towards someone who has wronged you. Wow can you imagine if each and every one of us lived this way on a daily basis. Being kind, showing compassion, and forgiveness towards others. Throwing in some laughter, a smile, a song or two, and dancing as if no one was watching, what a better lifestyle we would have. Then to top it all off pray throughout the day and give thanks to God for the wonderful things you have in your life. What do you think? Today, try to be this scripture. Change up your day. Do 5 acts of random kindness, be creative, have fun with it. Forgive, smile, laugh, sing, dance and pray. Not only will it change the other person’s life, but it will change yours as well. God Bless. Amen.
