Choosing kindness is not always easy. There are people who will hurt our feelings and do things that makes us want to react in an unkind way. One of the keys to being able to choose kindness over being unkind in your reactions is to be spending time in prayer. Pray for those who who are hurtful to you and ask God to show you ways to show kindness to them and ask Him to give your the strength to not respond in a negative way. This doesn't mean that you allow people to walk all over you but rather than you are intentional in how you act and react. Remember, you cannot control other people, but you can practice control over yourself. With the help of the Holy Spirit, it will be easier to show kindness.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, Help me to see way in which I can show kindness to others. Put someone in my path today who needs your light and love. And if someone hurts my feelings or is unfair to me, slow me down and show me how to respond with kindness. Thank you for the Holy Spirit which helps me to have self control. I love you Lord. Amen.
