I choose gentleness...
May my hands always place a tender touch.
May they guide softly with kindness, those whom I love.
I choose to be gentle. ~
Nothing is won by force.
I choose compassion...
When I don't understand or disagree,
May I always have a heart that feels tenderness,
Realizing I may not know the story behind the tears.
I choose to be compassionate. ~
May my voice be soft and mild.
May I choose my words before I speak.
When I raise my voice, let it be in praise,
Words of encouragement, sweet to a hurting soul.
I choose to love.
Lord,
It's easy to love those close to me...
Help me love the unlovable
The difficult
The one's who need it most.
Remind me,
When I am tempted.
Remind me.
When I forget. ~
I choose to be gentle.
I choose to be compassionate.
I choose to be kind.
I choose to love.
~Neva
