When speaking, are you gracious and kind?<br />

Do you say things like, “How are you today?”<br />

“Thank you.” “I appreciate your help.” “What is<br />

your name?” “You really <strong>do</strong> well.”<br />

When sharing your home, <strong>do</strong> not keep your<br />

guest guessing. Do you show them where the<br />

towels, soap, and shampoo are? Are there places<br />

to hang clothes in the bathroom so <strong>that</strong> they <strong>do</strong><br />

not have to put their clothes on the floor? Do<br />

they know where the tea and coffee pots are?<br />

Might they have special needs? Be careful about<br />

putting them in an uncomfortable situation<br />

by leaving them alone with a member of the<br />

opposite sex.<br />

“So, as those who have been chosen of God,<br />

holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion,<br />

kindness, humility, gentleness and patience;<br />

bearing with one another, and forgiving each<br />

other, whoever has a complaint against anyone;<br />

just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you”<br />

(Colossians 3: 12-13, nasb).<br />
