Difficult People

I know I need to be kind, but it’s really hard with some people. How can I be kind even to unkind people?

God’s Response

Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better. Colossians 1:10

Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. Matthew 7:12

Your love has given me much joy and comfort, my brother, for your kindness has often refreshed the hearts of God’s people. Philemon 1:7

Kindness is not a single act, but a lifestyle. You practice kindness in all you do and say, always treating others as you would want to be treated. Kindness does not mean always giving in or giving up and letting others have their way. Even when confronting others over a tough issue, you can do it in a kind way without being rude or derogatory. When you do these things, you can have a great impact on others for Christ and his Kingdom.

This Is Promising

Your kindness will reward you. Proverbs 11:17
