Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you with all malice. And be kind to one another tenderhearted forgiving one another just as God in Christ also forgave you. Ephesians 4:31-32. Be kind – Life is so short and most of the way is rough. The times are trying the road upgrade and always trouble enough. Tomorrow’s cares can wait. Today with diligence let us keep our hearts from the strain of hate. Life is too short for spite and revenge and paying back wrong for wrong – try patience and love and forgiveness this world needs the wealth of your loving and forgiveness loving, kindness. Life is too short to be hateful or scorning anyone you meet strive to be pleasant and gentle. Tell the devil to listen well. We’re bought with the blood of Jesus Christ charged with his power, indwelt with his Holy Spirit. We are destined for victory. Let’s smile and be kind – life is so short. A smile costs nothing but gives so much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give it lasts a lifetime. A smile creates happiness in the home. The smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Stand up – stand up for what you believe.
