KEY IDEA:
You can't go wrong by acting with kindness.PRAYER:
Lord, I am a blessed recipient of your kindness. Thank you. I want to be kind, too. But it is really hard -- especially when someone has hurt me so badly. I need you to help bring kindness to the surface in me. Give me nice things to say to people who don't deserve nice words. Give me a smile for those who only know how to scowl. And give me pleasure in showing kindness to undeserving people. I'm going to act kindly -- just as you have acted kindly toward me. Amen.
