The train that we rode to the top!
A view from the train ride.
Sleepy baby after such a big morning!
The train that we rode to the top!
A view from the train ride.
Sleepy baby after such a big morning!
"It is a beauteous evening, calm and free,
The holy time is quiet as a nun
Breathless with adoration; the broad sun
Is sinking down in its tranquillity;
The gentleness of heaven broods o'er the sea:
Listen! the mighty Being is awake,
And doth with his eternal motion make
A sound like thunder, everlastingly.
Dear child! Dear girl! That walkest with me here,
If thou appear untouched by solemn thought,
Thy nature is not therefore less divine:
Thou liest in Abraham's bosom all the year;
And worship'st at the Temple's inner shrine,
God being with thee when we know it not."
~ William Wordsworth
kind: of a sympathetic or helpful nature; gentle, affectionate, loving
A neighbor is someone who is friendly and kind
One who waves a "hello" passing by!
We want to be a friendly neighbor to you, so
We brought a small gift just to let you know!
Hope you enjoy and that it just makes your day
Brings a smile to your face and brightens your way!
From your neighbors at .........
"He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my soul." ~ Psalm 23:2-3Lord, please give me a heart that remains in You ~ so I can draw from Your strength and nourishment. And, when I feel like I am wilting ~ to be refreshed by Your perfect care.

"Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near." ~ Philippians 4:5I started pondering and thinking about what it means to be gentle. How is that evident to all those around me? And, I love that the next sentence reminds me that the Lord is near - and I want that to be obvious to those who spend time with me.
praus = gentle, meek, the positive moral quality of dealing with people in a kind manner, with humility and consideration.Overall, the themes I saw throughout all the verses were these:
"...we were gentle among you, like a mother caring for her little children." ~ 1 Thessalonians 2:7How would you describe gentleness? How do you evidence it in the lives of those around you? This is my goal today - to be gentle and kind in my treatment of all those around me.
"Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight." ~ 1 Peter 3:3-4
"...pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness." ~ 1 Timothy 6:11
