God's spirit adds something to your life called Prautes. English words you could use to try to convey the meaning of Prautes might include: gentleness, acceptance, submission, humility, calm. However, none of these words conveys the full sense of the word.

Vine's Expository Dictionary defines of prautes as: an attitude toward God [state of mind], submitting one's self to God, not resisting God, confident in God's presence, authority, and power. Prautes gives calmness of spirit from mental focus which is not on self, or prioritizing personal desires.... Prautes seeks and wants what the Creator of life desires. Prautes is is confidence that God is in charge, and acceptance that God is in charge.

English words you could use to try to convey the meaning of Prautes might include: gentleness, acceptance, submission, humility, calm

The more I looked into prautes… the more I wanted it as part of my thinking. I hope you will too.
