Kindness

Often we find ourselves wondering why me Lord, I am kind.

We pray for the Lord to smile upon us, for blessings.

We find after many years perhaps , kindness is often rewarded with defamation. Kindness is often rewarded with harm or even hatred. Why are things that way?

We will never see the Lords face on earth, in this life. We will never see the blessings we expect from kindness. Actually people will despise you for being kind, if not a person perhaps an animal, if not an animal a microbe. By being kind you are approaching the throne of the most high. You dare to be good, there is none that is good except the Lord.

Better to lay your treasures up in heaven and not to expose them on earth. It makes me feel uneasy to get an award or to be honored. It is Ok to expect great things, if they have nothing to do with rewards from kindness.

Someday when we see the Lord's face , we can then appreciate the treasure and enjoy the smile.
Always be kind whenever possible and keep your treasure in heaven for none to steal.

Peace,

Earl.
