The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me'. Matthew 25:40
King Jesus identifies with his children, citizens of the New Kingdom. He expects us to take care of each other. He calls us brothers and sisters. When we provide for our fellow citizens on earth, it is as if we are providing for our King.
The motivation for showing kindness to others comes from the love we have for our King. We do not serve our brothers and sisters to get earthly rewards but we serve because we love our King and we always want to obey him. He tells us to love one another.
