GOODNESS is the action which constitutes Christian excellence. When we act out of true goodness of the heart and reflect the fruit of the Spirit, we are obedient to God’s commandments and seek the benefit of others. Our actions come from a place of selflessness, and we place the needs of others before our own. Being good, and therefore, being kind, generous, and striving towards high quality should be expected, nurtured, modeled, and encouraged by all and in all settings.
"In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." -Matthew 5:16
