Thought for the Week: Kindness

Ernest Hall reflects on showing kindness

by Ernest Hall 31st March 2017

A month or so ago one of those worshipping in our Sunday Meeting rose from her seat and ministered to us about ‘kindness’. She pointed out that it wasn’t always easy to love our neighbour and that it is nearly always very difficult to love our enemies. It was, however, always possible, and not at all difficult, to show kindness to our neighbours and to our enemies and – who knows? – perhaps sometimes receipt of that act of kindness may be the first step towards that enemy becoming a friend and neighbour.
