God is kind.
Ephesians 2:7 reveals that God shows us “the immeasurable riches of His grace in kindness to us in Christ Jesus.” God is kind, and Jesus is the living proof of that kindness. Jesus displays what God’s kindness looks like. Jesus presents God’s kindness in living form. Even though we may be unkind to other people, or even to God Himself, God still takes the first step and gives us the unmistakably kind gift of Jesus.
When God saw the world struggling, wandering off on its own, lost in traps of its own making, He sent Jesus to show the way home. God offered Jesus to the world then, and He offers Jesus to you and me now. When you are lost, God sends Jesus to find you. When you turn your back on God, still He calls you home with the kind gift of Jesus: God’s own Son, the Word of God made flesh, offered as a gift to the world.
