Kindness

On Sunday it was time for another 

ladies study on a Fruit of the Spirit.

Now I had done my research and 

was prepared to talk about Kindness.

In fact I thought it would be 

beneficial for us to make an 

acrostic of points to remember 

as it related to kindness.

Then the time came and rather than

pick up my own Bible I grabbed two from 

the church library on my way by.

They both happened to be King James

and that particular version does not use the 

word Kindness.

Panic!

I thought I was losing it!

After all, I had been looking it up online

the night before and found all kinds of 

references.

Well, after checking the NIV 

we found the word Kindness just as I 

had expected....

Whew!

Galatians 5:22

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, 

peace, forbearance, kindness, 

goodness, faithfulness,

So...

We made an acrostic.

Sometimes just words but 

often with scripture references to 

back it up.

The overall gist was that kindness is wanting the best for others.

Achieving that by truly listening and always 

considering others before ourselves.

For example K was "Keep Your Mouth Shut!"

We had a bit of fun with it

because we are a fun group of ladies!

This is a great exercise

for a group.

We were into the Word 

and it brought out 

a good bit of discussion.
