Hebrews 13:2
Hebrews 13:2
And be kind to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
The call to kindness is extended not only to those we know but to strangers as well. The Bible encourages us to be kind to strangers, for in doing so, we might unknowingly be entertaining angels. This verse highlights the importance of hospitality and open-heartedness, especially to those outside our immediate circle. When we show kindness to strangers, we not only meet their physical needs but also bear witness to the love of Christ, who welcomed all into His embrace. We may never know the full impact of our actions, but our kindness can touch lives in ways we may never see. As leaders, we are called to extend this kindness, making room for others, showing love to those we don’t know, and recognizing that in serving others, we might be serving God Himself.
1 Peter 4:8
And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
Luke 6:31
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
Romans 12:9
Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
