Morning Inspiration with Pastor Merritt Jesus, who was God in the flesh, was a walking, talking example of how to be kind. If you study the Four Gospels, you find something amazing about Jesus Christ. This man, who walked on water, healed the sick, raised the dead, fed the crowds, made the blind to see, and the deaf to hear and even went so far as to provide salvation for the entire world, never, ever turned anybody away who wanted to see Him. He always had time to speak a kind word or do a kind deed. What is even more remarkable is that Jesus came into a very unkind world. In his day there were no hospitals, orphanages, mental institutions, Salvation Armies or Red Crosses. None of those things were in existence in the world into which Jesus came. Yet, people were amazed at how Jesus would pour the milk of human kindness into every bowl of human suffering that He came across. He was kind to people who loved Him. He was kind to people who hated Him. I don’t mind telling you that one of the hardest parts of the Bible for me to want to obey is the part that tells me to “love my enemies”, but Jesus said something in Luke 6:35 that tells us why we are to love our enemies. “But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.” Share this with a friend. Give them the gift of Gods inspiration. #Christian #Jesus #Faith #Church
