Justice has caught up with the murderer (4).Paul bitten(?) by a poisonous(?) snake (3).Frequently cared for shipwrecked sailors. Native hospitality (2, “uncommon philanthropy”).Showing Kindness to Unexpected People (1-6) Receiving the Kindness of a Savior (11-16).Showing Kindness in Unexpected Ways (7-10).Showing Kindness to Unexpected People (1-6).Prepare for God to extend his kindness to you in unexpected ways through unexpected people.Now we see Maltese natives, Publius, and Christians in Italy showing him kindness. Last week, Julius the centurion was kind to Paul.And wouldn’t you know it…shortly after arriving safely on shore he is attacked by a snake.PTSD after 4th shipwreck? Paul desperately needed to know the kindness of God. In spite of Paul’s consistent character, you have to wonder when he breaks.But considering all that Paul has suffered, will question the Lord’s kindness?
