Kindness is…


But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.  Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
(Galatians 5:22-25)

 

So what is kindness as a Fruit of the Spirit?

I think it is very similar to love.  Kindness is like love, that can be seen.  Love must be felt, but kindness is sort of like the active arm of love.

Or something like that.

Wishing someone well, that is love.

Doing something about their needs, that is kindness.

Love is faith, Kindness is actions.
