Of hurt. Anger. Dare I say it...Sin. Daily walk. It was more like a drunken stumble. I can see me clearly. Not to beat myself up or berate myself but to understand that now that I am walking a little more on my own the testimonies that I have. The help true desires of my heart.

It takes more strength to be kind than it does to be brutal, because it involves restraint and self reflection. It requires grace to see beyond the fault and find the need. <BR/><BR/>The world, however, is a different story. The world believes that gentleness is a sign of inferiority. It inhibits you from career promotion, from being taken seriously, from being seen as a good "leader." I know for a fact that if I were the kind of cut throat like many of the individuals I know, I would be in a leadership position.<BR/><BR/>But the problem is, I would not be fit to lead. <BR/><BR/>True leadership is not about control, because true leaders exercise passive control. They don't have to beat somebody into submission. People want to follow them. They allow others to develop their leadership skills.<BR/><BR/>I'd rather live my life struggling to be firm, but gentle, than to be rewarded for being brutal. Ultimately, nobody respects someone they fear, and neither do they truly love them.ms mimi the mocha soulchildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301316700724316180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904521.post-1153846417136425292006-07-25T12:53:00.000-04:002006-07-25T12:53:00.000-04:00It is something a lot more of us need to remember....It is something a lot more of us need to remember. Death and life does live in the tounge. K' you want someone to grow, remember that God showed Elijah that He often whispers, so what are you doing shouting? I have to remind myself of this often. Bluntness is used as a last resort by me now, or at least that is my goal. Sometimes shutting your mouth is the best way to be gentle, more of us should try that method as well ;0 Becoming a good or better Christian is so hard. I am hard on myself, I know others are hard on themselves too. Good reminder to be kinder, gentler.

But in the end, I always feel better when I have treated someone with kindness and gentleness.<BR/><BR/>We all liked to be treated with kindness, but sometimes in the hustle & bustle of our day, we tend to forget about those small things that makes a person feel appreciated -- kindess, tenderness, gentleness, lovingness, etc.... these small gestures go a long way and have a lasting impression.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904521.post-1153709268396113992006-07-23T22:47:00.000-04:002006-07-23T22:47:00.000-04:00Fantastic, sis!
