Speak Softly, Walk Softly

Walk in softness, softly speak.
Let your presence soothe and heal.
Gentleness releases peace
And shows a caring which is real.

Willingness to pause or pray
May help another just to stand,
To feel self-worth and have some hope
And finish what they once began.

Hard times may have set them back
Or robbed them of their life's desire.
Through your caring they will heal
And to new heights they will aspire.

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance..."
Galatians 5:22-23 KJV
