Deep Pockets

 

And the Lord's servant

  must not be quarrelsome,

but kind to everyone...

            2 Timothy 2. 24

(One of our strongest witnesses

   is how we treat others

   and whether we react

   or respond

         to circumstances,

   both difficult or favorable.

In the inconvenient, uncomfortable,

              and difficult,

   it is evident to all

         Whose we are.

We respond differently

   -- we CAN respond differently--

   as a believer,

marked

   by gentleness and grace,

not a natural response,

   but a supernatural one.

We have been changed.)

O LORD,

Help us to reflect Your grace

by being extraordinarily kind

   in unlikely circumstances,

   unexpected situations,

   and volatile relationships.

May we not be seen

    as simply nice people,

but transformed by Your love.

Use this situation

   as a powerful witness

to draw others to You.

Grant to us

    deep pockets of kindness.
