Weekly Word from the Wisdom Walk
Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. What in the world? Why is there association between gentleness and Christ's return? I'm sitting on the beach in Jamaica doing this post so I don't have the benefit of a concordance. But from what I understand, arrogance is the killer of gentleness. Other negative emotions opposed to gentleness include anger, pride, selfishness, and impatience. None of these reflect the mind of Christ.
What fosters gentleness? Meekness, peace, a quiet spirit, humility, and all that is commonly referred to as the Fruit of the Spirit. Is it then any wonder gentleness is used as an indicator of our readiness for Christ's second coming?
Lord, make gentleness a part of who I am.
The pictures are of Saturday morning walk with the Laurens and Company, and a stretch of Seven Mile Beach Negril, before it awakens for the day.
