Fruits of the Spirit - Gentleness

Gentleness is another fruit of the Spirit. To be gentle is to be kind. Again, this is a fruit that doesn't go without another. 

I guess gentleness can be seen as the way that we deal with situations. In a case where we could be harsh, the Holy Spirit will guide us to being gentle.

I'm not actually sure that I have a lot to say about gentleness, so I've found some more bible verses. 

"Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near." (Philippians 4:5)

We shouldn't hide the fruits of the Spirit from others. He gives us these gifts for us to show others His power and love. 

"Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience" (Colossians 3:12)

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect," (1 Peter 3:15)

I don't have a lot to say about gentleness, but I know I will be thinking more about whether I am showing gentleness in my everyday life. 

Thankful for: Transportation

Imagine if we had no way of getting anywhere except for on our feet. I know there was a time when we didn't have the same transportation as we do now so I'm thankful for the transportation that we have now. Even though it can often be expensive, it's great to know that we can go from place to place in a number of ways.
