Ephesians 4:32 NKJV
“And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.”
Ephesians 4:32 NKJV
To be kind and care for one another is to extend grace to one another.
God cared for us and saved us not because we deserve it but because He loves us and cares for our total well-being.
God died for our sins not because we repented but because He saw the need to save us.
God anointed us and empowered us not because we earned it or by living worthy of it but because He wanted us to live just like Him.
Therefore, we don’t show kindness because someone deserves it but because they need it.
When we display what Christ has done for us, we have fulfilled His purpose.
As Christ is, so are we in this world. Imitating Christ and looking unto Him will lead us on the right path.
If we can measure everyone the way Christ has measured us, it would be a powerful display of God’s love towards each other.
Because we have freely received, we can also freely give.
Reflecting on what Christ has done for us will propel us to love others the same way.
Therefore, let us love, care, bless, forgive and help each other according to His richest blessings.
Let us display to everyone what Christ has displayed in our own lives.
Blessings
Ps Ambrose
