[Manna - June 21]
Learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly of heart. Matthew 11:29
TRULY, in a meek and quiet spirit is the secret of
rest.
To be meek is to cultivate the graces of patience;
of loving submission to the will of God; of abiding confidence
in His love and care and in the wisdom of His
guiding counsel and overruling providences; and to
persistently pursue this course through evil and
through good report, or through favorable or unfavorable
circumstances.
Let the beloved children of God seek more and more
to copy Christ's meek and quiet Spirit, accepting the
providences of God and obeying His precepts and leading
as He did, armed with the strength which He alone
can supply, and will, to those who take His yoke upon
them, and learn of Him. Z.'96-79 R1962:1
