1. What did the disciples do when the children approach Jesus?
“The disciples asked the children to go away and not disturb Jesus.”
2. How was Jesus being gentle to the children?
“Jesus hugged the children and talked with them.”
3. How can you be gentle while you are at home?
If you want to play a toy with your friends, don’t snatch it from them. That’s not gentle. Instead, you can ask gently if you can play with them. Or when you want to change to other toys to play, you don’t have to shout or force everyone to play with you. Instead, you can gently ask if anyone wants to play a different toy with you. You can be gentle to a baby. Even when you are angry, you don’t have to use angry words that will hurt other people’s feelings. Jesus can help us to be gentle.
