“My dear children. I know there are times when you are weak. I know there are times when you have no strength left. But I am the Gentle Savior. My gentleness is not weakness as the world would define it, but My gentleness comes from Divine Strength. I hold you gently in My Hands. With great tenderness I lead you. With a gentle Voice, I speak with you.

A bruised reed I will not break, nor a smoking flax I will not quench. My gentleness makes you strong. My Right Hand supports you and My gentleness in you makes you great among men. Be gentle with one another. Be not afraid, Beloved. I shall bring you through to victory. ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’” saith the Lord of hosts.
