The reflection

Gentleness is not agreement. It is choosing not to add fuel to something already burning.

One step forward

Answer gently once today when you would rather not.

A short prayer

Lord, you said it and I want to believe it. Where I can't yet, hold me anyway. Let these words go with me into the rest of today. Amen.
