A still, small voice



Then the LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the LORD.  Behold, the LORD is about to pass by.”  And a great and mighty wind tore into the mountains and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind.  After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.  After the earthquake there was a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire.  And after the fire came a still, small voice.  When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.

-- 1 Kings 19: 11-13

Never underestimate gentleness. There is so much power in being gentle.
