I am following in the footsteps of my Way Shower by being gentle and kind.
If ever I doubt that there is incredible power in gentleness, I have only to look to Jesus. As I listen in the stillness, I accept the invitation to walk in His footsteps: "Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."
As I give expression to my gentle spirit, I do find rest for my soul. I am at peace, and an attitude of compassion and acceptance pervades my thoughts and activities. My gentle words have the power to soothe the troubled heart and point the way to harmony and understanding.
Spending time in silence renews my commitment to being gentle and kind, calm and considerate. I know the joy and peace of following in the footsteps of my Way Shower.
"Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."—Matthew 11:29 |
