God’s Kindness Changes One Life at a Time
(World Kindness Week)
Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience,
not knowing that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?
It is easy to become overwhelmed with a sense of hopelessness, when reading the headlines of the latest cruelty, perversion or political movement that seems to hate even the merest vestige of Christianity. Such temptations to despair sometimes can get our eyes off of what God has called us to do and call us to respond with harshness, criticism or sarcasm. But Jesus had another way when He faced an unreasonable and seemingly hopeless mission. The path that Jesus took, unleashed the power of God’s kindness.

Correct man of God, in the beginning God created the heavens, the earth, and every living creature, and His work was finished. So, in reality there is no new thing to be created; but in the continuous revelation of His perfect, complete creation, there is perpetual newness. When understood spiritually, life consists of a ceaseless unfoldment of Life, good. As this true sense of creation unfolds in consciousness there is constant joy, activity, and interest. One moves in a new world, as it were—a world as eternal as God, but new to him who is spiritually perceiving it.
Your Friend – His servant,
