Hello dear sisters, welcome to week 7, Benevolence. On page 159 the authors say, “For a believer, kindness is a fruit of the Spirit that is empowered, enabled, and directed by God. When our kindness extends beyond those who deserve or reciprocate our benevolence, when it reaches out to those whose shortcomings and failures we know full well, that is when we reflect the heart of Him who is “kind to the ungrateful and the evil (Luke 6:3). This week, we’ll talk about the type of heart and spirit that produces good works. All the work we do – whether in the home, the marketplace, or other ministry settings – should proceed from a kind heart – a good, benevolent, charitable heart. A kind-hearted Christian woman is a rare find in this self-centered world where there are far more takers than givers. Christian kindness, expressed in our attitudes and actions, our speech, on the Internet and in social media, in our relationships, and in our homes, churches, and communities, is a powerful means of displaying the amazing kindness of Christ in coming to this world to save sinners.”
