Spirit of Meekness

Grace covers a multitude of sins. That's what we're to do in church-life. You'll have plenty of opportunities to do it! 

Speak love. Feel love. Think love. Act love. Cover sin. In the church!

Remove the plank in our own eye first. Have no hypocrisy. Fear. Consid yourself lest you also be tempted. 

Restore. In the spirt of meekness. 

The spirit of meekness. 

Even the world can lambast sin. Alternatively, it can bear the demeanour of shame. But meekness is godly.

Meekness doesn't just lambast sin, but neither does it ignore it in self shame. Meekness restores. 

Humility. Not shame. Grace. Not ingnore or lambast. 

Cover sin - by offering grace - grace to forgive; grace to impart, to empower. 

That might involve rebuking - but meekly, humbly, not hypocritically, not without grace. Great grace.

Moses was meek. That meant he didn't react hypocritically nor vindictively. But he have way to mercy. He interceded for mercy. He didn't think of his own comfort.

If you dare not speak but with trembling, you will be exalted in the Church (see Hosea 13:1).
