Proverbs 3:3-4
Do not let mercy and kindness and truth leave you (instead let these qualities define you); bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. So find favor and high esteem in the sight of God and man. 

The world needs mercy and kindness from people who can judge situations according to the word of God. We represent God, and when we act as He would on this earth, we show God’s goodness. This will bring us favor, but more than that, we will receive high esteem from God.
