11 Bible Scriptures That Motivate Us To Be Kind
11 Bible Scriptures That Motivate Us to Be Kind: Sometimes being kind can be challenging because of how people see kind people.
We have to know that being kind does not mean that we have to allow people to walk over us. You have to know your own worth and self-respect.
Know when your kindness is leading to disrespect. Don’t let people take your kindness as foolish or weak. Stand up for yourself and set boundaries to ensure that your kindness is respected and not taken advantage of. Remember, being kind does not mean being a pushover, so assert yourself when necessary.
But we must remember that God wants us to love and be nice at all times.
