Kindness

Today lets look at Kindness. Thats a topic that we all probably could use a little direction on. "A kind or considerate helpful act." This is the definition of Kindness. We all need to be kind to each other .Lets look at some verses about kindness. Ephesians 4:32 " And be ye kind one to another, Tenderhearted, forgiving one another even as God. for Christ saith hath forgiven you." This verse tells us to be kind to each other tenderhearted, and forgiving because god did the same when he died on the cross and paid the pently for our sins. another verse. Proverbs 31:26 "She open her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law of kindness." This verse tells us to be kind. The Proverbs 31 woman is a wonderful example of kindness. What are some ways to be kind? 1. Help our parents when they need us. 2. Help our brothers and sisters. 3.Treat others the way we want to be treated. 4. Forgive easily and quickly. These are just some w

Contentment

  My first  post here on Blooming for the Lord will be on "Contentment." I'll start with the definition of  the word contentment:                                  "Contentment~  The state of mind which one's desire are confined to his lot, whatever that lot may be."   We are all supposed to be content. But when choose not to be content were going directly against what God tells us through Paul writings in Philippians. Contentment is a choice! We must remember that. Lets look at some verses about contentment:    " Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned that whatsoever state I am therewith to be content."                                                   Philippians 4:11 This verse clearly states that we are supposed to be content in whatsoever state we are in. Another verse thats clearly telling us to be content no matter what.                   "But Godliness with contentment is great gain."
