I will give them one heart and put a new spirit within them. Ezekiel 11:19
God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7
Almighty God, we praise you for your gentleness toward us. In our loneliness you offer us your love. In our waywardness you offer us renewal. In our weakness you offer us your strength. May we not only enjoy the blessings which you shower upon us, but may we use them to lighten the burdens of others. Give us gentle hearts, that we might be blessings to others. Amen.
