A harsh word, a sudden move, an angry outburst – we’ve all made them and felt them from others. Not uplifting or comforting, these brusk and sometimes brutal actions.

For today’s TLC Tuesday, the word and action is “gently.” Gently steer yourself today, praying for patience and love to fill your life. Gently approach others, and gently move away from negativity that can hurt and cause you pain. Pray for God’s gentle hand to be upon you, and his grace to envelop you. Gently. Gently.

We all need a little more TLC. Why not Tuesday?
