Gentleness.

                            

The philosophy of God is gentleness.

Jesus said: "'Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble of heart.'"  Matthew 11:29 (NRSV)

God is all those things that the world is not.

God is considerate.

God is reliable.

God requites our love.

God listens.

God helps.

If we can reflect these things then we are creating the Kingdom of God on Earth.

This is how we make a difference.
