Of the 3 things that God requires of me, I must admit that I struggle most with "love kindness." It's one of those things I've learned about myself since watching some of my own character flaws develop in my children.
I can certainly be kind, but it isn't my natural state. When the checkout lane is moving too slowly because of some chatting clerks or an old woman paying with pennies, I'm usually one of the first to show annoyance. I can get very snippy and focus on my own incovenience above all else.
All 3 encompass our whole lives, but the hardest for me is the daily little times when I encounter someone. It's the small stuff that trips me up in my walk with God - and I need to start sweating the small stuff.
