Matthew 11:29 "Take My yoke
upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will
find rest for your souls."
We are drawn to preachers and teachers who proclaim and
teach truth from a humble heart and a gentle spirit. Truth is convicting enough
without the pride of man adding insult to injury. Our gentle words carry
with them the blessing of God’s Spirit.
Humble men and women point people to Jesus, not to themselves. Gentleness gets people to God. Here they feel His love and approval.
Union with your Lord brings out His best in You. Because He is gentle, you become gentle. Since He is humble, you become humble. Patience is your fuel for gentleness and prayer powers your humility. Your Heavenly Father is well pleased when you grow in these. We are invited into the humble and gentle community of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit!
