• “It takes spiritual authority to bless others. Many Christians say, “God bless you,” but one clearly senses that although the words express a kind wish, they lack real spiritual authority.” – Basilea Schlink

Act of Kindness by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 02/24/12

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: According to 1 Corinthians 13, one of the marks of love is kindness. It is also a fruit of the Spirit. As women, we’re called to a proactive kind of kindness—to offer hospitality and make guests feel comfortable, to give to those who are in need. Wives are called to serve their husbands. Moms are called to serve their children.

Kindness can take different forms in different seasons of life, but there’s so much value in sending cards and notes, being sensitive to listen, and in meeting practical needs.

Kindness doesn’t just involve loving actions. It also involves doing them with a loving heart—acting through God’s power and for His glory.

How can you show kindness out of a kind heart in your season of life?

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

Verse of the Day

[Christ in Our Place] For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. — Romans 5:6-8 (NKJV)
