  Unfortunately, it is true that some people only want to talk about themselves, and they only seem to care about things that affect and pertain to them. This is a form of unkindness. People who have this problem need to start showing care for the needs of others. Jesus taught us that we are to love our neighbors. We aren’t loving them if we never ask about how things are going for them and ask how we might pray for them. We aren’t loving them if we don’t listen to them speak and exercise patience in doing so. Even if deep down we don’t feel that we care that much, we still should try to really care. The church, or a smaller group of people, can also show kindness toward others by helping them out with the needs they have—by providing those needs. Churches will often help the community in which they reside with different things. People go down and feed the homeless, visit the elderly, and show care for orphans and widows. Here are some things Jesus said about kindness: “For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ will by no means lose his reward.”
