The Bible says in Leviticus 19:33 "And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him."
Nowadays, it is so hard to be kind to a person because there are people who always have that thinking of taking advantage of you or your family. However, we must also realize that not everyone is like that.
Being watchful and vigilant to another person is alright, but when your kindness gets pushed back, it is definitely wrong.
The Bible verse in Leviticus chapter 19:33 talked about a stranger meeting a fellow stranger. We show hospitality to others because we care about them, and they the same to you.
Although sometimes, there are people who will use you. We must always remember that Jesus will be the judge to them.
Stereotyping is something that we should never practice.
As Christians, we must always have a loving heart, a forgiving soul and an overflowing love that we can give to others.
There are some who will take advantage of you, but not everyone is like that. Of course, we cannot help everyone, but as Christians, the Lord will help us discern if we are doing the right thing.
On the contrary, helping someone is not bad, but we must also be wise when doing the extra mile. Christians should be guided according to God's will, just like what happened when God sent Moses to free the Israelites who became slaves in Egypt.
(v34.) But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
Even though not everyone are Christians- yet, making them feel God's love will definitely give them a taste on what God's love really is.
We are called to create a community of hospitality-strangers welcoming strangers into God's family.
