Winds can be either gentle or violent

[Mary Naeem]

H.H. Pope Tawadros II




The Winds Blew
Winds can be either gentle or violent, symbolizing words—whether praise or criticism: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue” (Proverbs 18:21). The wise person ignores hurtful words and focuses on God’s word: “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” (Hebrews 4:12).
