Week 6: KINDNESS

Read Galatians 5:22-23.

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”

What are the 4 Fruit of the Spirit we have learned already? (love, joy, peace, patience)

Today’s fruit is Kindness. What do you think it means to be kind?  

Have you ever been kind to someone?  

Do you remember a time when someone has been kind to you?  

Kindness goes hand in hand with the very first Fruit we learned about. Do you remember what that fruit was? (love)

Kindness is love in action. That means loving others helps us to be kind to others. We care for others, help others, and show love to others when we are kind.

Can you think of someone you can be kind to? How would you show love to them by being kind?  

Be looking for ways you can show kindness to someone today at practice.

How can you be kind to players on the other team during games?  How about to the referees?

When you show kindness, you are showing others God’s love and that will bring joy to their hearts!

Let’s pray:

Dear God,
Bring someone into my life today to whom I can show kindness. Help me to love others with Your love.
Amen.
