Kindness
There was a 5-year-old boy named Michael, whose
mother was pregnant with a baby girl. The little boy
would lay his hand on his mothers stomach and sing
to a child in her you are my sunshine, my only
sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray. He
did this every day. When it came time to have the
baby, at the hospital there was a problem with the
birth and the woman had to have a C section and
the baby did not farewell. The baby was taken to the
intensive care unit. The little boy kept asking
when can I see my sister. Several days went by and
the Doctors said that the baby may not make it. The
Mother thought that if the boy did not see his
sister he may never see her alive. The Mother took
the little boy into the intensive care unit to see
his sister. The boy saw his sister with all of the
tubes and monitors around her. The Nurse saw the boy
and said for him to leave. The little boy started to
sing you are my sunshine, my only sunshine. The
Nurse noticed that the babys rapid breathing began
to slow down. She looked at the boy and said keep
singing. As the boy kept singing they noticed the
baby was breathing normally and the blue color of
her skin started to become normal. The baby became
calmer as the boy sang. That baby lived and never
had another problem.
Our words are very powerful. That little boy was singing kindness to his sister, even in the womb before she was born. She heard him singing to her every day of her life. Even after her birth, that boy sang kindness to her and she was healed by it. Our words are the most powerful thing that we can use to fight against our enemies. We can lift people up or put them down. When we are kind to those around us, we lift them up. Be kind to those around you. New King James Version Proverbs 15:1 Ά A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger. New King James Version 2 Peter 1:5 Ά But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. 8 For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
