thanks for an excellent sermon on my favorite word "Kindness". I must relay a story. When i was a small girl around 4 years old I went to Sunday School one Sunday and there i memorized my first memory verse. I was so proud i could say it back to the teacher and i practiced saying it all the way home to tell momma. I have never forgotten this verse, can't remember any of the others i must've learned, but this verse impressed me not just because i could say it! But because it always seems to come to mind even these 80+ years later. The verse was; "Be Ye kind, one to another". I think it might be in I Timothy somewhere. anyway I do try to live this way as often as i can. So whomever the teacher was all those years ago, I am grateful that she had the patience to help me learn it. And I hope i live up to her expectations of me by showing kindness to all the 'anothers' I meet.
