In the Word of God, we are encouraged to be kind. The priest and the Levite certainly were not very kind to the man who fell among thieves. Would you have done what the Samaritan did? The Lord Jesus is kind beyond comparison. Not only did He die for us, but He now lives for us, daily manifesting kindness in so many ways: He sends rain, sunshine and fresh air to breath, and He gives us food, clothing, shelter, health and other comforts too numerous to mention. As Christians, we can show kindness to others, even as God has shown kindness to us. The Bible tells us of people who wanted to show kindness to others and of people who desired to be shown kindness.
