Inspirational Nugget; Ima Christian & Asha Christian; Policing monitoring App
Alongside their brother Caleb Christian, The Christian sisters founded a mobile app development company called Pinetart, Inc. The siblings created a mobile app called Five-O, which allows citizens to enter the details of every interaction with a police officer in every county in the United States. The app allows users to rate the officer’s professionalism, courteousness, and provides access to critical information needed for legal action. When asked why the trio created the app, co-founder Ima responded, “We’d like to know which regions in the US provide horrible law enforcement services as well as highlight the agencies that are highly rated by their citizens. In addition to putting more power into the hands of citizens when interacting with law enforcement, we believe that highly rated police departments should be used as models for those that fail at providing quality law enforcement services.”

The Fruits of the Spirit – Gentleness
Galatians 5:22 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition – Gentleness (meekness, humility)…
Gentleness in this case simply means our reaction to issues which is normally against us.
When our teachers, parents and guardians any other person tells us things or acts against us, do we respond in an offensive manner or we are calm to ask why they made those utterances, or we just also respond because we are angry?
Gentleness is not only about how good we dress or look, no, this is called a gentle heart or spirit. Such people are always nice to be with, no matter what.
Prayer
Lord Jesus, by the help of the Holy Spirit, I ask you that you enable me to think, talk and act like a gentle person, amen!
