Verse of the Day: Proverbs 25:21-22

If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the Lord will reward you.

Have you ever heard the expression “kill them with kindness”? It means to put an end to anger and bitterness by showing kindness and generosity. As metals are melted by heaping coals upon them, so is the heart softened by kindness. (Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary) By consistently treating your adversaries with unexpected kindness and generosity, they are more likely to witness the same love, forgiveness, mercy, and grace that the Lord extends to you. Demonstrating kindness, even to those who may not deserve it, not as a reflection of their character, but as a testament to your own.
