Y’all

Be kind to those around you. A good person should never practice cruelty in any way, but don’t confuse being kind with being nice. If we must correct someone, it should be gentle and out of love, but at the same time if we must correct someone, we must correct them. It should never mean going along with others in every way.

Being kind means being generous with our time and resources. Being helpful, especially when nothing is expected in return. Being grateful at the least blessing.

Allowing someone to wallow in brokenness when we could help is not a kindness. It could be misguided “being nice” or even as bad as apathy. But harshly rebuking someone when they are wrong can never be considered kind.

For the Christian, kindness does not mean overlooking someone’s sins, but it does means forgiving them. But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil. Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful. "Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; (Luke 6:35–37)

Kindness is a virtue.
