Hello everyone! Hope your day is going great!!!

Today I want to start off by congratulating the Ouachita Tigers on their win over Harding! If you didn’t know my brother Whitt is on the football team! But today I want to talk about Kindness.

You have probably heard this word since your first day of school ever, when your 1st grade teacher would say it “BE KIND”. Our world is a very dark, hard place to be in sometimes. And people all around us fight personal battles everyday. Some with no hope in JESUS. So we should always be KIND. I always say to people at school “JESUS WAS KIND.” We never know what someone’s going through. They could be at the end of their rope on the verge of something and one rude remark could wreck them.

The Bible says, “Kind Words are Sweet like Honey to the soul and healthy for the body.” We should only have tongue that speaks truth, love, and kindness. It doesn’t matter if your 5 or 85. GOD wants us to be kind and be a light for all those around us! So live in that! Be kind! People are going to be rude, but doesn’t mean we should attack them back. WE SHOULD KILL THEM WITH KINDNESS! GOD LOVES EVERYONE! WE SHOULD TOO! Have a great rest of the week! You are LOVED, VALUED, and BEAUTIFUL in GOD’S eyes! Need a church? FBC DEKALB TEXAS THIS SUNDAY! 9:30-small groups, 10:45- Worship/ Message! SEE YOU THERE!
