If we are to be like Jesus, we must be kind, for He is kind to the just and to the unjust. If we are to be like Jesus, we will allow kindness to motivate us, even when we are dealing with those who are unkind.
Are we fools when we are kind to people who don't value kindness?
In the world's estimation, yes; but not in God's.
