How can you be kind to people you don’t get along with?

3/5/2018

Hello Reign Forest Families,
Last week in RF we finished our Kindness Theme.  Here's a summary of the time spent together:

Key Question: How can you be kind to people you don’t get along with? There are times when we face people who we feel don’t deserve our kindness. Most likely, preteens have a list of people who they don’t get along with and why those people don’t deserve their kindness. But Jesus tells us to love our enemies. Through this question, we hope kids start to discover how they can show kindness to people who fall into this category.
We finished out our month in Matthew 5:43-48. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus expands the scope of who deserves our kindness. Not everyone will be kind to us; some may be quite mean to us. Jesus says that we should love our enemies and pray for them.
  
Bottom Line: Be kind to people who aren’t kind to you. As kids discover what Jesus says about loving our enemies, we pray that your kids discover ways they can show God’s love and kindness to people they might not get along with all of the time. They don’t have to be best friends, but they can be kind.

Bible Memory Verse: Bless those who persecute you. Don’t curse them; pray that God will bless them. (Romans 12:14 NLT ​)
 
Blessings,
The Reign Forest Team
