Gentleness!

Jesus is often referred to as "Gentle".  We think about the woman at the well.  And how gently Jesus treated her. (John 4:7 -26).  He knew that she had no husband and that she had been married many times and he could have ignored her or chastised her.  Yet he spoke to her and corrected her and converted her.We think about the woman caught committing adultery and how gently Jesus treated her.  (John 8:2-12).  He could have chastised her, instead He told the crowd who had brought her that whomsoever had never committed a sin should throw the first stone.  No one threw a stone and eventually the only people left were Jesus and the woman.  He told her to go away and sin no more!

We think about the verse when Jesus said "suffer the little children to come unto me."(Matthew 9:14).

Gentleness is a fruit of the Holy Spirit and it is one of the true signs of being filled with the Holy Spirit.

When we show gentleness in our dealings with people it is remembered and it is always noticed,  and most of all,  it gives glory to GOD and shows that we are indeed filled with the Holy Spirit.

Prayer: Heavenly FATHER GOD, I humbly ask that YOU make me gentle like Jesus.  Show me how to be gentle in all my dealings.  I pray this in the Holy Name of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Stay Gently GOD blessed today!
