Gentleness

There is no better example of that gentleness than in the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. “Say to the daughter of Zion, see, your King comes to you, gentle and riding on a colt, the foal of a donkey,” Matthew 21:5. Jesus wasn’t trying to impress anybody when He came into Jerusalem. He came with a gentle spirit, one that attracted young children. There was a spirit about Jesus that said, "My Father’s in control." This Sunday we will see how we can have this gentleness. "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law," Galatians 5:22-23.
