Good Morning!



The Bible speaks of Jesus Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah.  It's quite a daunting title - fierce and commanding.  And yet, Jesus told his disciples that He was “gentle and humble in heart.”  So, which description is true?  Each is true.



You may think gentleness equates to weakness.  But that simply isn't so.  Gentleness is actually controlled strength.  It is the ability to choose to reach out to another person with tenderness and caring when it is within your power to crush and destroy.



Choose to be gentle with those whom God has placed in your life - your spouse, your children, and your co-workers.  In that way, you will be following in the footsteps of Christ.



When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.
