Gentleness
Sunday School Poster: Character Series Col 3:12 – Gentleness
I did a series of Character posters for Lake Williamson Christian Center https://www.lakewilliamson.org/ that focused on character qualities and incorporating verses into the piece. This is the poster on Gentleness taken from Colossians 3:12: Since God chose you to be the holy people He loves, you must clothe yourselves with tender-hearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. As Christians we are more effective in sharing the Gospel when we are gentle and kind. I read a great quote the other day: As Christians its more important to be kind that right. Being gentle does not mean weak, it’s where we can be strong, but we choose to be kind and gentle to help others understand that power of the Gospel and the peace of Jesus Christ.
You reminded me of 1 Peter 3:15
” 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 repect.”
