Created for Relationship - Part 2

If you had to outline in specific terms what you expect from your current relationships, what would your list include? A child psychiatrist has emphasized the necessity for modeling kindness, which she believes has been ignored. She contends that teaching and demonstrating kindness is critical for sustaining healthy companionship.

Do you expect kindness from those with whom you share a relationship? How consciously aware are you of kindness you demonstrate? In a rushed world kindness can be a rare commodity, even to those you love. But what condition must be present in a person to insure expressions of kindness are possible?

Feelings of peace open the door for expressing kindness to others. Peace, love, and kindness fit snugly together, as Psalm 85:10 declares. "Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other." Can these be separated from kindness? Kindness seeps out from the depths of your heart and soul, for this is where God comes to meet you.
