Be kind to one another – Inspirational ORIGINAL ART #20 by @allforthegood
If ever there was a lesson for life, it would be this: Be kind.
There are many, many times in our life where we will struggle to forgive; to believe the best in each other; to look on situations with compassionate eyes, and yet we must. When I remember how many times God has forgiven me, I can turn a soft heart to those around me.
God’s lovingkindness is life changing.
How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! -Psalm 36:7
Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips will praise You. -Psalm 63:3
Or do you disregard the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience, not realizing that God's kindness leads you to repentance? -Romans 2:4
If I don’t choose kindness, what is the alternative?
To repay evil for evil and insult for insult. To hurt as I have felt hurt. To turn a cold heart to the world and demand that I get “mine.” But where would that leave us?
And so we read in the bible:
Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, even as God in Christ forgave you.
-Ephesians 4:32
I don’t know how you feel, but to me, there’s something special about kindness. Maybe it’s because we are always told we have to love. It almost seems obligatory for a Christian…you should love everybody. But kindness? Kindness seems to be the icing on the cake. It’s beautiful to behold, to experience and to give.
How I Came Up With the Design
This particular design isn’t my favorite, but I believe it is appropriate for the verse context. I chose soft muted tones and colors to illustrate the concept. Flowers, an international symbol for kindness and forgiveness, fill the background. And, white lettering stand out against this pleasing backdrop.

Always with the encouraging scriptures and words and art :)
I don't think you'd want me to suggest a verse, seeing as how i have a darker bent. I'd probably suggest the end of Psalm 88, verse 18.
Probably doesn't fit your theme though :)
I know! I'm relentlessly positive :) I can design that for you. Would you like daisies or kittens?
