Set Apart
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart. Matthew 11:29
In November 1742, a riot broke out in Staffordshire, England, to protest against the gospel message Charles Wesley was preaching. It seems Charles and his brother John were changing some longstanding church traditions, and that was too much for many of the townsfolk.
When John Wesley heard about the riot, he hurried to Staffordshire to help his brother. Soon an unruly crowd surrounded the place where John was staying. Courageously, he met face to face with their leaders, speaking with them so serenely that one by one their anger was assuaged.
Wesley’s gentle and quiet spirit calmed an angry mob. But it wasn’t a gentleness that occurred naturally in his heart. Rather, it was the heart of the Savior whom Wesley followed so closely. Jesus said, “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). This yoke of gentleness became the true power behind the apostle Paul’s challenge to us: “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love” (Ephesians 4:2).
In our humanness, such patience is impossible for us. But by the fruit of the Spirit in us, the gentleness of the heart of Christ can set us apart and equip us to face a hostile world. When we do, we fulfill Paul’s words, “Let your gentleness be evident to all” (Philippians 4:5). — Bill Crowder
Why does today’s culture see gentleness as weakness? How is gentleness actually strong?
Dear God, remind me that Jesus displayed a heart of gentleness and compassion to His adversaries.
Read more about Jesus.

Hai Kathy! (((HUGS))) Well I’m back and already planning a trip to Las Vegas for four days. I didn’t realize how busy the private bizjet business is; folks don’t like dealing with cancelled flights and being stranded.

Good evening, radu...hope you had a good day, not blistering hot, and no pollen.
Just plain hot here, and for another week. Still no sign of rain.

Hey there, Kathy.
Hotter ‘n hades here and oppressive with the humidity. A cold front comes through tomorrow and will cool us off a bit through the weekend. Whew!
I imagine you have your fan blowing on the high setting today. :-)
Did you get any deck time today? Hang out with the ducks?

Howdy, PRO!
Are you finally getting to enjoy some warmer temps out there? I certainly hope so since it’s now JUNE. I’d be more than happy to share some of our heat with you if I could figure out how to pipe it out there. LOL

Good evening, lightman...you are so right: we must NEVER forget those who have given us our freedoms.
Is your garden starting to grow?

Slowly but surely.
Did most of the planting toward evening on Memorial Day; I was pleasantly surprised to find the soil damp after the first 1/2 inch.
Herb container garden near the kitchen door has nearly double in size in the past week. Had fresh picked celantro on my Tuesday tacos!

Hi radu!
Our weather is getting warmer but still cloudy and rainy and not typical for this time of year yet, oh well.
Not much else to report, going to do some lawn work at Robin's tomorrow.

Do you fly the passengers in and just hang there until they are ready to leave?
