The Strength of Gentleness
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.—Matthew 5:5 (ESV)
Later, as Jesus left the town, He saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at his tax collector’s booth. “Follow Me and be My disciple,” Jesus said to him. So Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.—Luke 5:27–28 (NLT)
Jesus saw something in people that others overlooked. He knew no one was beyond redemption. Consider this verse as an invitation to see others as Christ sees them, with their full potential. Avoid judging by their history or appearance, instead look to their heart.
Heavenly Father, Transformer of Lives, renew my vision so that I may see others as You see them.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.—Matthew 5:5 (ESV)

And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works.—Hebrews 10:24 (ESV)

The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body.—James 3:6 (NIV)
