APPLE OF HIS EYE

APPLE OF HIS EYE Zechariah 2:4-13 Devotional:- “...for he who touches you touches the apple or pupil of His eye” (V. 8) AMPL      One of the most honourable and highly protected parts of our body is our eye. It is highly protected because of its importance and delicacy. The eye is the light of the body (Matthew 6:22, Luke 11:34). A man without sight is blocked without light. He will need to learn to see with the inner eye. Because of the importance of the eye, everyone takes time to wash it with all care and caution. When things are coming against it, wise people will always avoid it. When something little enters the eye, we become restless until it is removed. The truth is that you cannot allow anyone to touch your eye. It is a reflex action for you to close it at such times.

CHOICE OF KINDNESS

CHOICE OF KINDNESS        
Proverbs 31:26
Devotional:-“She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness.” v 26


    To be kind is to demonstrate good gesture towards people around us. One of the attitudes of God is kindness (Exodus 34:6) To be kind is costly; it’s going to cost you parting with things that should have been of comfort to you to help the less privileged. This is not because you have so much, but because you made a choice to love and be kind to others. 

When you are demonstrating the act of kindness, people will always assume that it is because you have so much to throw around, which is not always true. If you observe that among the fruits of the spirit, kindness is part (Galatians 5:22). If kindness is a fruit we bear, then, it is not a gift: it is a fruit you cultivate to bear. Those who don’t cultivate it cannot bear it.

If your choice in life is to be kind, then, get ready to build up kindness as a life style. Please know that kindness is a natural disposition of a heart of love. That is why if you truly love, you will not struggle to give (John 3:16). A choice to be kind like our God will cost you cultivating a heart of love for others. God’s word says, he that does not love, does not know God (1 John 4:7-8). The fruit of kindness becomes natural to a heart of love. To demonstrate love, you must learn to obey the word of God (John 14:21). Then, you will be the true son of your father. Peace

PRAYER- Lord, give me a heart of love to be kind.

“YOU CANNOT LOVE AND NOT BE KIND”
