From Galatians 5:22-25: “By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.”
Seeing mankind standing along the road
Bearing heavy burdens, life’s overload
Stopping to say, travel the other way
Sharing some kindness, from our Lord today
Shining Jesus’ light, for all to follow
Hearing His Word, rich wisdom to swallow
Overlooking life’s narrow-minded walk
Sharing some kindness, truth becomes our rock
Lending helping hands, sisters and brothers
Showering daily grace, like none other
Forsaking life’s blindness, opening eyes
Sharing some kindness, never in disguise
Helping others who travel beside us
Inviting them, catching rides on God’s bus
Loving with patience, goodwill overflows
Sharing some kindness, warming hearts aglow
Recalling Christ’s call, handing out His love
Sharing His mercy, planted from above
Paying it forward, kindness shared each day
Harvesting endless treasures from God’s way
This poem is inspired by singer Glen Campbell’s classic tune, “Try a Little Kindness.” Here is one of his renditions of this remarkable song. Pay it forward, show the world some kindness.

Journey of darkness
Chasing empty voice
Life without answers
Nothing to rejoice
Hearing God’s whisper
Revered voice speaks out
Lighting righteous path
Faith hungers to sprout
Now, wander no more
Embracing God’s voice
Past left in ashes
Trusting mercy’s choice
Walking in God’s light
Goodness from above
Accepting His grace
Faith’s heart beats with love
Life’s upright answers
Sharing each rejoice
Hope at last finds God
Following truth’s voice
From Psalm 18:28: “It is You who light my lamp; the Lord, my God, lights up my darkness.”
