Try a Little Kindness

DAY 3 OF 3

Your good words should follow up with good works. The things we do and the things we say demonstrate kindness in a mean culture.

We should let a world permeated with meanness see our good works. It’s a good work when we help someone in God’s name. If you did something nice just because you’re a nice person, well that’s fine. But a good work is more than that. You need to attach God to the good work you do because good work seeks to do three things:

First, it seeks to bring people into the kingdom because you want to see them saved. It’s your primary motivation.

Second, it seeks to help people become more useful for the kingdom. In other words, it creates disciples.

And third, it brings people the benefits of the kingdom in the here and now. It helps them to bring a kingdom perspective into everything they do.

So, let’s do good works by bringing more kindness into our culture.

What good work is God calling you to perform today?

About this Plan

Try a Little Kindness

We don’t have to participate in the atmosphere of vitriol that pervades our culture. God has called us to a better way. We are to demonstrate His kindness through the way we treat others and what we say to them. As bestselling author, Dr. Tony Evans, explores in these devotions, we can make a difference by practicing intentional kindness in the midst of all the darkness in our culture.
