It was years ago on a VHS tape case. (Long before the DVD and all the digital stuff, this was how we watched movies!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rewinding the tape before you returned it was a way to be kind to the clerk at the video store or the next person who rented\/ borrowed the tape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paul reminds us to be kind to one another. OK, we can do that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then he says to be tenderhearted. Let&#8217;s show compassion and empathy for folks we come in contact with.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The third part might be the hardest part. &#8220;&#8230;forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We shouldn&#8217;t hold a grudge. If I&#8217;m tempted to, I look in the mirror and remind myself that Christ has forgiven me for a TON of sins. Then, I forgive, and release it to God, and leave the person in God&#8217;s hands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, maybe the archaic tape label has a new meaning for us today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/communitychurchministry.com\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=7305\">When you rewind a tape, you can play it again.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you shower someone with an act of kindness, keep doing it. Then, be kind to the next one, even if they don&#8217;t deserve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe your acts of kindness will inspire others to do the same.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Be Kind&#8230; Rewind.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Be Kind&#8230; Rewind \u201cAnd be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.\u201d \u202d\u202dEphesians\u202c \u202d4:32\u202c \u202d Have you seen the yard signs that say &#8220;Be Kind&#8221;?
