Spiritual Beekeeping and Kindness

Spiritual Beekeeping and Kindness

Backyard beekeeping is a gentle craft so as not to rile the bees and insure they are content and continue to produce honey. The necessary skills to raise bees can be extrapolated to similar skills necessary in developing interpersonal relationships. God expresses His kindness to mankind to restore and build relationships. God teaches us about love through His commandments. He forgives our shortcomings. Christ demonstrated His love for mankind by His humility and willing sacrifice so that mankind could have a restored relationship with God our Father. These are similar attributes that those God has called are to exhibit in building positive relationships with one another. Gentleness, Kindness, Humility, Forgiveness and being Tender-hearted are the traits we are to develop now and express to one another in today’s world where kindness is in short supply. God has called a people to be a witness to the world by practicing HIs ways and expressing Kindness. This Kindness is a reflection of the Kindness God expresses to us. This Kindness means we are considerate of the needs of others and we esteem others better than ourselves. We also are patient and not a respecter of persons as we are sensitive to the needs of one another. In practicing these skills we build the Godly traits we will need in God’s coming Kingdom to help assist those who are shell-shocked because of the events preceding Christ’s return .
