Meditation Experiment: Week 2

Verse:
Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.


A smaller verse to consider and meditate on is very refreshing and not so daunting.

Gentleness, is a fruit of the spirit, which is often over shadowed by Love and Kindness (both very important). When it's hard to love and be kind, gentleness can be a useful tool. Imagine if our gentleness was evident to everyone we came across. A gentle spirit is a rarity, but so beautiful and humble.

Experiment/Meditation:

For 5 mins a day, whenever you can sit and be still, take the time to think about this small verse. Do not feel pressured to find the perfect spot, just practice being sweet and quiet.
-For minutes 1-2 repeat the verse over and over.
-minutes 2-3 be still for 1 minute and try to not let your mind wonder from the verse. But do not repeat the verse. Just meditate.
-minutes 3-4 turn your thoughts to what you think true gentleness is.
-minutes 4-5. Be quiet and relax.

Verse:
Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.
