Lesson: Gentle and Humble

12/16/2015

0 Comments

 
"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 (NASB)
The middle school age group has an innate ability to keep a person humble.  They can also teach the value of gentleness and patience.  Teaching middle schoolers has often reminded me of the need to be humble, gentle, and patient.  Student reactions can be very different to different teachers and different approaches.  Sometimes we forget that others will respond more positively to a humble and gentle approach.

Jesus was humble and gentle.  He didn't walk around proclaiming Himself to be God.  Instead, He let His actions back up His message of love so that others could see His majesty.  Jesus asks us to learn from Him.  By following His ways and relying on His guidance, we can learn to be more humble and gentle in our hearts and actions.  When interacting with others, we need to show God's love with humble and gentle actions that can support others, building them up and allowing them to see the majesty of Jesus and the glory of God!

Follow the lesson that Jesus modeled for you.  Learn to be humble and gentle in your heart!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me and for sending Jesus to teach me.  Help me to follow His ways and be more humble in gentle in all that I do.  Through Jesus, the Great Teacher, I pray, amen.
