Fruit of The Spirit - Kindness & Goodness

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,  kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control -  Galatians 5:22.


KINDNESS

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you - Ephesians 4:32.

An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up - Proverbs 12:25. 

 Be kind and compassionate to one another - Ephesians 4:32.      

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud - 1 Corinthians 13:4.

Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do - Colossians 3:12,13.

GOODNESS

Depart from evil and do good, So you will abide forever - Psalm 37:27.

Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, When it is in the power of your hand to do so - Proverbs 3:27.

And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers - Galatians 6:9, 10.

See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all - 1 Thessalonians 5:15.

But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good - 2 Thessalonians 3:13.

And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High - Luke 6:33-35. 

Do good to those who hate you - Luke 6:27.

Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness - Psalm 37:3.                            
                                                               

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to do good to others and be kind. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
