““Look, I am sending you out as sheep among wolves. So be as shrewd as snakes and harmless as doves.” Matthew 10:16 NLT
Doves are the symbol of peace. Doves have a good relationship with mankind. They are usually quiet and unflustered. They can be taken hundreds of miles from home and find their way back. This makes them intelligent.
If Jesus is telling us to gentle as doves, then He would know their nature, and recommends us to liken ourselves to them. Being gentle is not always easy, especially with exasperating individuals. To be gentle we need His grace. At moments like this I pray and ask the Lord for His grace.
Today His grace is ever available. Why not pray and ask Him to help! Amen!
