GENTLENESS


Our loving Lord. The depths of our misery can never fall below the depths of [God's] mercy. -- Richard Sibbes
 
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light (Matthew 11:30).
 
A hymn to read, sing, hum, or whistle to the glory of God: How Gentle God's Commands. Phil Doddridge, 1755.
