Gold Nugget 322 - With Kindness
Strongest affections often grow in most untoward clime and place. They throw their roots down and with vigorous determination, in stony, rocky places. The little soil they find in grove, chink, fissure, is often good and rich, however, and they use it well, and ere long make the rift larger, and acquire thereby more moisture and more deposit of soil. And it is so with kindness.
The most diverse nature will appreciate it most. Sometimes just because it is unexpectedly offered to the foreigner, the outcast, the despised, the undeserving, the notorious sinner, the man whom a thousand gave up as a hardened hopeless man, for one who entertains a contrary thought, it takes amazingly to the soil, and becomes ere long a vast and fruitful growth.
The Pulpit Commentary, I Chronicles p. 310, I Chronicles 29:1-19, (P. C. Barker)
