Being kind does not require exceptional talent, skill, gift or ability. It doesn’t even require a massive investment of time to be kind to someone. Everyone can be kind and loving. All that one really needs to possess to be kind is the ability to consider other people and be concerned for their well-being.

All Christians should practice kindness and consideration for others. The Bible calls on Christians to consider the needs of others. In the New Testament book of Mark, Jesus Christ calls on His followers to “love your neighbor as yourself.” He says this is the second greatest commandment, right behind loving God with all your heart, soul, strength and mind.

A short but sweet video posted on social media perfectly demonstrates someone following Christ’s commandment to love your neighbor as yourself. The clip begins with a woman with her left hand covering her mouth. She is amazed by what has just taken place. The text above her head explains the situation that caused the woman to become emotional.

“We just moved into a house, and my 98-year-old neighbor just dropped off a cake to welcome us to the neighborhood,” the text reads.

The next shot is of the elderly gentleman making his way back up his driveway. The text beneath the kind and loving man mentions what he told the woman when he presented her with the cake to welcome her to the neighborhood.

“He’s lived here for 52 years and “hopes we love it as much as he has,” the text reads.

The woman also includes a quick shot of the cake the elderly gentleman gave her.
