Kindness and love go hand in hand– and love must occasionally point out a problem that exists. It would not be kind to let someone continue to be caught in a trap. Being kind would necessitate us helping the person get out.
People today are caught in all sorts of traps and addictions. There are those that are addicted to smoking or drugs. There are also those addicted to television, video games, or accumulating money.
Do we take the time to be kind to these people and approach them with their problem in a spirit of love?
Won By One quotes from the Bible on her myspace page:
Rom 11:22 (NIV) Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off.
In this passage, God is saying that He is kind because He provided a way of escaping punishment, but people are still headed that way.
If we know someone who is caught in an addiction, or there is something in their life that they need to get right, it’s only the kind thing to do to confront them in a loving way.
