In times of uncertainty, it’s comforting to remember that God knows what lies ahead. As Psalm 139:16 reminds us, “Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” This means that even when our future seems unclear or daunting, God has already mapped out our path. His plans are always greater than ours, and He is with us every step of the way, guiding us through both the joyous and challenging moments.

The first step in embarking on your mission, is embracing God’s vision. In this podcast episode, Carlos Rivera will get you moving in your calling at home, school, and work – “Your place of employment is your position of deployment.” Go in confidence knowing your steps are ordered of God (Psalm 37:23).

One of the core principles of Christianity is kindness, deeply rooted in the teachings of the Bible. Here are some key points that highlight its significance:

Reflecting God's Nature: Kindness reflects God's love and mercy. Ephesians 4:32 urges us to "be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you."

Loving Our Neighbors: Jesus emphasized the importance of loving our neighbors, which includes showing kindness to all individuals, even those who may be challenging to love. In Matthew 22:39, Jesus states, "Love your neighbor as yourself."

Transformative Power: Acts of kindness can make a profound impact on others, often leading to positive changes in their lives. Proverbs 16:24 says, "Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones."

Compassion and Forgiveness: Kindness entails showing compassion, caring for the vulnerable, and demonstrating forgiveness and grace. Colossians 3:12-13 reminds us to "clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another.
