What does the Bible say about... Kindness?

KINDNESS.

The kindness Jesus displayed was bold and courageous, not fearful or timid. 
There is a supernatural work God does in us as we walk with Him to cultivate kindness, which is different than "niceness."

Kindness comes from a transformed heart that has been touched by the love of God. It isn't conditional, it doesn't waiver on other people and how they treat us. It isn't natural; it must be cultivated IN us so that it can become a reservoir that flows OUT of us 💙

How would you define kindness?
What is something you can do today to display kindness in your own life?
