Practicing Kindness

Kindness

Adopting an attitude of kindness does not suggest that we turn a blind eye to the less-than-charitable behavior of others. It does suggest, however, that we not allow others’ lack of charity to affect our disposition. Kindness is shown through actions. When we refer to someone as being kind, it is usually in response to a gesture or action of goodness that was unmerited by the recipient. Christians are called to show kindness—to perform acts that are intrinsically good even, and especially, when those acts are unmerited and go unreciprocated. Advent Attitude 5: Kindness
