I am too nice. [Matthew 5 v44-48 ]

I heard a lady on the radio say I am too nice,I  really don't thing she was
stressing being to nice,she was really saying people were taking advantage of her.Can a person be to nice?well I am sure we would rather have genuine
nice people,than those who are not.Let's face it, we have all, had to deal with people who were not nice,employer,neighbours,even family,and even fellow Christians.What does it mean to be nice? does it mean that we go along with everyone,we never challenge someone who is doing wrong.Most of us are nice to some degree,but unfortionately not all the time,I am sure we need more nice people on the road,more considerate,less aggressive,
refraining from using their car horns.Alright we are all going try to be more nice,but how are we going to reactive to those who are not nice to us ?that is the challenge. Here is what our Saviour said,/Love your enemies,bless them that curse you,do good to them that hate you,and pray for them which
despitefully use you,and persecute you[ Matthew 5 v44 ].
                                                   A  prayer.
Dear loving Father help us to be nice,and help us with the even greater challenge to be nice to those who are not nice to us,in Jesus name Amen.
