Is kindness “who” you are? I’m not sure that kindness is ‘who’ I am … but here’s to trying to be just that! I figure, every day is a new day … what a gift! I’ll be sure to take what gifts I can get!
During the session Beth pulled out some Greek words, given my small bit of education in Greek – I was all pumped! So, this might not tickle your fancy in the same way it did for me. But here goes: the Greek word for ‘kind’ is ‘chrestos’. And kindness is ‘chrestotes’. In the NT Lexical Aids we see that ‘chrestotes’ described as: “It is the grace which prevades the whole nature … The word is descriptive of one’s disposition.”
Today, I shall try to be full of kindness … I shall be ‘strong’.
One other thing from Beth Moore:
“You can fake nice but you can’t fake kindness.”
