MESSAGE

Every person is powerful, even a little child. We can choose to speak or act in certain ways, but submitting that power to the Holy Spirit is what eventually makes us gentle. Before I gave my life to Christ, I used to get angry easily and offended me. Then, I met the Holy Spirit, who began to work on me. Now, when a fellow does something wrong and I want to react rashly, He nudges me to be calm so that I can correct the fellow.

I overcame anger because I handed over the reins of my life to the Holy Spirit. If you want to be gentle, you also need to do the same. He is the only One who can give you the wisdom to act right at all times.

When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you will be gentle and correct people with ease instead of arguing or speaking with resentment, knowing that their salvation is very important. You will also forgive easily.

KEY POINT

If we allow the Holy Spirit to lead us, we will be filled with the fruit of gentleness.

HYMN 21 – I WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS

I want to be like Jesus,

So lowly and so meek;

For no one mark’d an angry word,

That ever heard Him speak,

I want to be like Jesus,

So frequently in prayer;

Alone upon the mountain top,

He met his Father there.

I want to be like Jesus,

I never, never find

That He, though persecuted was

To anyone unkind.

I want to be like Jesus,

Engaged in doing good;

So that of me it may be said

“He hath done what he could.”

I want to be like Jesus,

Who sweetly said to all,

“Let little children come to Me;”

I would obey the call.

But oh I’m not like Jesus,

As anyone may see;

O gentle Saviour, send Thy grace,

And make me like to Thee
