Kindhearted not Aggressive

" Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, "
Colossians 3 : 12

Notice how this list doesn't include: judging hearts, aggression, vengeance, etc.?
Perhaps that's because we shouldn't have those qualities. Every time I look at Christ's character and then look at mine I see how vastly different they are. When I think I'm living the right way I realize that I'm not as forgiving and patient as I should be. Being kind and gentle should be trending in the Christian faith yet there's still a lack of it because it's difficult to oppose aggression and evil with a gentle spirit, isn't it?
