Do You Think Kindness Will Someday Be Rewarded?

No act of kindness or unkindness is unnoticed by the Almighty God. He sees all. So keep being kind and keep doing kind acts. They will come back in a bumper crop. That has been my experience. Galatians 6:9-10 Today's New International Version (TNIV) 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

I feel like this too sometimes! I am no angel, but I always try to make good on all the things I do and I promise. I always try to be just, even when I see people around me with complete disrespect for others. I just feel that someday, this will all pay off. I'm not religious, but I feel that when I do finally meet my maker, I could honestly say, that I tried to be good all the time.

I am the type of person who reaches out to help people in any way I can. I agree it can hurt, but I only help those I love and care about and never ask for anything in return. I know they will be there when I need them the most, and they always are.

When we act for others I think we will ruin it if we go on around thinking that our act will give reward. Our kindness is a indigenous to our personality and we should try to make our personality more impressive by making it more kind and It does not matter that it is paid back or not....... Even if the kindness is rewarded or not I do not care about any reward of our act which gave such an immense pleasure that it does not require any reward...

I have also been the one who put others first, did altrustic gestures, had concern for others I still do, but the reward, well ????? I try also to do things that bring pleasure for my own self... but it is more than hard work most of the times.... as you say when I need someone.... where are all the people..... it is rare someone offers to give me a hand. I sometimes speak up ans say it makes it more pleasant if we can help up doing it together. If I am to have a reward for all I've done for people during my life time.... it better start to come my way..... I'm 52 years old...

no matter what you did as long as it is done sincerely it will always be rewarded..it may not be in materials things in life but sometimes it is rewarded by the things that we receive in our day to day lives.

I think you are rewarded immediately, the feeling you get yourself knowing you are a good person, I feel sorry for selfish people they never have that good feeling about themselves and yes I do believe in karma and in some way all the good comes back to you or yours in some way or another...

In a word Yes! You are a very good person . If you are religious , just remember G-d sees. And you will be rewarded. If you are not religious, then just remember what goes around , comes around. Your random act of kindness will return. It is they who are not there for you who are in the wrong , Not You . Keep being our sweet , giving self.

I'm like that I often go out of my way to help others because I think everyone deserves a helping hand once and a while, and its just in my nature to be kind I don't know how to be any different That said sometimes I feel under appreciated and taken for granted I'm sure a lot of people can related to feeling taken for granted, but when I do something for someone I do it from my heart and I don't really expect anything in return, but sometimes it would be nice to feel appreciated a bit more As for if my kindness will be rewarded I don't know maybe in the next life but I'm not sure if I will be rewarded in this one haha. I don't think much about rewards when I do something from my heart I just enjoy helping people, and making others happy though I don't like the way it feels when someone turns around and treats me or my kind deed like it didn't matter or takes me for granted, but I also realize that some people can't understand true kindness and they take a kindness as a sign of weakness that's why we have to be careful of how much or how far we extend ourselves to help it's sad but some people can't help but be ungrateful and feel entitled and they forget that we have feelings too.

There are a lot of supernatural crap that a lot of people believe in these days but I surely believe in karma. If you always do good to others, I'm extremely sure it will go back to you ten fold.

"What can I do to help", instead of "what's in it for me" ought to be the thing to keep in mind. Accountability should be our ideal aim, instead of entitlement which is getting to be the trend today. Anyway, "what goes around comes around". We cannot expect rewards now and we should not even expect anything in return for our desire to help. However, Someone Up There keeps tab of everything that happens here and sooner or later, everything is going to fall into place.

Of course God will always bless the meek and the kind. I'm not the type of person who always give and give. I will always see to it if the person is deserving or not then I will decide. I knew a person you will always think of other people rather than himself. I like his attitude because he is not selfish but I what I hate is because of that unselfishness often time he is taken for granted and abused. I just hope that sometimes you have to give yourself a chance.

Yes I believe that kindness will be rewarded especially to helpful people like you. The people you've help before may not be the one to help you in return right now, but I know someone will help you soon. Just keep on praying and God will work something big for you and your family.

LovingMyBabies keep your head up and be strong. I admire you for the type of person you are. I think it is important to always keep in mind that your kindness will ALWAYS be rewarded. I'm beginning to learn that the reward just may not be from others doing good acts like we do for them. Our reward be just be that it makes us much stronger and better people.

LovingMyBabies yes I do think someday it will be rewarded and too I would feel badly if I refused to help say my adult son or a close friend. I try not to think of it as something to be repaid although I do help my adult son a lot and he does always repay me too. so thats just wonderful.I try to do good for goods sakes and not expect to always be repaid. it helps to keep from feeling hurt.

I do think that kindness will be rewarded, at one point or another, whether it's the next day or the next decade. It will be rewarded. If you're kind to others, others will be kind to you. Just like if you're mean towards others, others will be mean towards you. It's just the way it goes, in my opinion.

There is one lesson yet for you to learn before it returns alot. Your quote: All of this heartache better be worth something at some point... Don't you see?? You are still placing conditions on your actions. Give unconditionally. Want or expect nothing back. If it doesn't matter if you ever get anything back then you have learned the real lesson. There will be no reason to hold it back. You are so close.

Yes, I really hope so. I tend to be very helpful and kind as well, whenever I can, and I do think this will come back to you at some point. You just don't know how and when, but it is never time and energy wasted. I am sure of that!

Hi! It's nice to be kind. I admire peoople just like you who are always available for friends and family. But about your question, I think yes, kindness will be rewarded. But sometimes, in ways we never expect. Like maybe not from the same people we helped but from others. But it will sure pay in the right time.

I believe Kindness are rewarded. The reward may not be right away and it may take another form. I think being kind and doing good things is like an investment. So, I always look for an opportunity to do good. Being kind makes us feel good about ourselves too. For example, my kindness to others might be rewarded through good health or protection from dangers. When we are kind we make a lot friends and they would always remember us too.
