I remember the first time I felt taken advantage of because of my desire to be nice to someone. I decided not to let it happen again. I stopped viewing being nice as so desirable. And I hope my children don’t feel they always must be seen as nice. I want them to have courage to stand up for what is good.
Today we observe Reformation Day. This message is an excerpt from “Say goodbye to nice” by Kari van Wakeren, in the July/August 2017 issue of Gather magazine.
