Clothe yourself in kindness

Kindness matters! In the Letter of St Paul to the Colossians we read: “…you should be clothed in sincere compassion, in kindness and humility, gentleness and patience” (Col 3:12).

Kindness is a virtue that is sorely lacking in the lives of so many. It was St Teresa who said: “Three things in human life are important; the first is to be kind, the second is to be kind, and the third is to be kind.” Remember that God, with undeserved kindness, redeemed us by sending His Son to die for us. Our Scriptures are replete with examples that show us that Christ is our model of kindness.
