About this listen

Gentleness is a beautiful quality. It is essential to all true character. Nobody admires ungentleness in man or woman. When a man is harsh, cold, unfeeling, unkind, and rude and rough in his manner, no one speaks of his fine spirit. When a woman is loud-voiced, dictorial, petulant, given to speaking bitter words and doing unkindly things, no person is ever heard saying of her, “What a lovely disposition she has!” She may have many excellent qualities, and may do much good, but her ungentleness mars the beauty of her character. No man is truly great who is not gentle. Courage and strength and truth and justness and righteousness are essential elements in a manly character; but if all these be in a man and gentleness be wanting, the life is sadly flawed. We might put the word gentleness into St. Paul’s wonderful sentences and read them thus: “If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not gentleness, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not gentleness, I am nothing. And if I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not gentleness, it profiteth me nothing.” We are strong only as we are gentle. Gentleness is the power of God working in the world. Christian Living Christianity
