Galatians 5:22-23
King James Version
22 But the fruit of the Spirit
is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance:
against such there is no law.
Does gentleness exist in the world?
The heart has become hard.
We look at the world, and it is so.
We need to turn back to CHRIST.
Who is gentle, truthful, and humble.
Isaiah 40:10-11
King James Version
10 Behold,
the Lord God will come with strong hand,
and his arm shall rule for him:
behold,
his reward is with him,
and his work before him.
11 He shall feed his flock like a shepherd:
he shall gather the lambs with his arm,
and carry them in his bosom,
and shall gently lead those
that are with young.
Matthew 11:29-30
King James Version
29 Take my yoke upon you,
and learn of me;
for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy,
and my burden is light.
2 Corinthians 10:1
King James Version
10 Now I Paul myself beseech you
by the meekness and gentleness of Christ,
who in presence am base among you,
but being absent am bold toward you:
We were all babies once.
Our flesh was delicate.
Our bodies were fragile.
Our hearts were soft.
Our minds were unformed.
Our trust was pure.
What made us so tough?
What hardened our hearts?
What made us so ambitious?
What made us so competitive?
What made us so corrupt, and sinful?
What made us so vain, and self-absorbed?
What made us forget the gentleness of our spirits?
What made us forget GOD?
We are in the end times.
JESUS wants us converted.
Matthew 18:3-5
King James Version
3 And said,
Verily I say unto you,
Except ye be converted,
and become as little children,
ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself
as this little child,
the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 And whoso shall receive
one such little child in my name
receiveth me.
He wants us born again, that His SPIRIT may teach us.
John 3:3-7
King James Version
3 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him,
How can a man be born when he is old?
can he enter the second time
into his mother's womb,
and be born?
5 Jesus answered,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh;
and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.
JESUS wants us to have eternal life.
John 10:10
King James Version
10 The thief cometh not,
but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy:
I am come that they might have life,
and that they might have it more abundantly.
Our hearts, minds, bodies, and spirits are fragile.
We need strength from JESUS.
We need clarity from SPIRIT.
We need to love GOD.
We need to have a sound mind.
Let us return to the LORD.
Let us run back to His arms, and be held by Him.
Let us never leave His side.
Ever again.
