Love. Forgive. As you forgive, you will be forgiven.

Forgive me for not being willing to hear your call until now, dear Lord. But I am here and I am ready. Direct me to where I should next go. Reveal to me how I should next serve you. Grant me the wisdom and the strength to trust you in all things. Wherever you lead. Whatever task you set. Help me, Lord.

You have just convinced me the faith you have found is what I need. What I have longed for. There is nothing further you could have said that would have convinced me. But this? This need to forgive. That is real, Julia. Genuine. I know it cannot come from within — except by the help of your God. Would you tell me how I might receive this ability to forgive from the God you have claimed as your own?

When I was young, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people.

Unkind people need your kindness the most. They advertise their pain.

A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees.

Practice kindness all day to everybody and you will realize you're already in heaven now.

Goodness is about character - integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people.

Kindness is in our power, even when fondness is not.

The more you extend kindness to yourself, the more it will become your automatic response to others.

When you are kind to others, it not only changes you, it changes the world.

To be kind is to respond with sensitivity and human warmth to the hopes and needs of others. Even the briefest touch of kindness can lighten a heavy heart. Kindness can change the lives of people.
