“Learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls”(Matthew 11:29b NIV).
“我心里柔和谦卑，你们当负我的轭，向我学习；这样，你们的心灵就必得安息。”（太11:29 和合本修订版）
The third thing Jesus says in the Bible’s stress management sentence is, “Learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls”(Matthew 11:29b NIV).
耶稣在圣经中讲有关处理压力的经文，第三件事是：“我心里柔和谦卑，你们当负我的轭，向我学习；这样，你们的心灵就必得安息。”（太11:29 和合本修订版）
What can you learn from Jesus Christ that will lower the stress in your life? Gentleness and humility. You say, “Wait a minute! That’s not exactly what I want to learn. Why didn’t Jesus say, ‘I’ll teach you endurance and stamina’ or ‘I’ll teach you confidence and courage’?” Jesus wants you to learn gentleness and humility to help manage your stress. Why?
你能从耶稣基督那里学到什么来减轻你生活中的压力呢？是温柔和谦卑。你会说：“等一下！这并不是我真正想要学习的。为什么耶稣不说‘我会教给你耐力和毅力’或者‘我会教给你信心和勇气’？”耶稣希望你学习温柔和谦逊，来帮助你处理你的压力。为什么呢？
You probably don’t realize it, but the two biggest causes of stress in your life are arrogance and aggression.
你可能没有意识到，但在你的生活中引起压力的两个最大的原因是骄傲和好胜心。
Aggression happens when you do things too quickly. You don’t wait. You don’t ponder. You don’t delay. You don’t think it through. You don’t trust God’s guidance and direction. You just jump in with both feet. And as a result, you get over committed, and you fill up your life with a lot of things that it shouldn’t be filled with.
当你做事情做的太快的时候，就会产生好胜心。你不等待，不思考，不拖延，不深思熟虑，你不相信上帝的引导和带领。你全身心的投入，结果，你过度的投入，这使你的生活被本不应该填充的事情充满。
Arrogance is the idea that you know what’s best for you, so you’re going to control everything in your life. You think you can handle things better than God can. Don’t you think that attitude probably creates a great deal of stress in your life?
骄傲就是你自己知道什么对你来说是最好的，所以你把生活中所有的一切都紧紧掌握在自己的手中。你认为你可以比上帝更好的来处理这些事。你不认为正是这种态度导致你生活中压力重重吗？
The truth is when you try to do it all, have it all, be it all, and experience it all, that is aggression and arrogance. What’s the antidote? Gentleness and humility. The two things we think we don’t need in life are the two things that reduce stress in our lives.
事实上，当你自己试图做所有的事、拥有一切、主宰一切，经历一切的时候，这就是骄傲和好胜心。解决的办法是什么呢？就是温柔和谦卑。那两样我们认为生活中最不需要的东西，正是减轻我们压力的法宝。
You’ve tried everything else to reduce your stress. Why don’t you try trusting God? Come to Jesus. He is gentle and humble of heart, and he will give you rest.
既然你已经尝试了其他一切的办法去减轻你的压力，那为什么不试着相信上帝呢？来到耶稣面前，他心里柔和谦卑，他会使你得享安息。
