The Bible reveals God's gentleness as a significant aspect of His character, prominently demonstrated through the life of Jesus Christ.
In Psalm 18:35, David writes, 'Thy gentleness hath made me great,' highlighting this remarkable attribute of God. Gentleness is not just a reflection of weakness; rather, it is God's compassionate and tender approach to His creation that reveals His character. This gentleness is profoundly seen in the Incarnation of Jesus Christ, who embodied humility and meekness yet possesses all divine strength. Through Christ's life and ministry, God’s gentleness is displayed as He interacts with sinners—offering grace and compassion and showing that He is intimately aware of our struggles, as depicted in various Psalms.
