Proverbs 19:22
22What is desired in a man is kindness,
And a poor man is better than a liar.
-Proverbs 19:22
How much do we prioritize the virtues of a Christian life style? Certainly we can see how much we like such virtues in others. The goal we ought to have is for such virtues to shine in ourselves. I have found that the world we live in has many that greatly desire to see virtues in others that they do not care to display themselves. Kindness, unfortunately, is one of those virtues. It is always so pleasant to have someone be kind to you. It is not always so pleasant to be kind to others. Still, it ought to be a priority for us. Simple acts of kindness have often been found to be an incredible evangelism tool. In a world where such a virtue is lacking, those who have it stand out above and beyond. Consider your ways and be kind. Let the joy of the Lord shine through you.
