A hot-tempered man stirs up dissention,
But a patient man calms a quarrel.
_______
PROVERS 15:18 NIV
Life is full of frustrations: some great and some
small. On occasion, you, like Jesus, will confront evil, and when you do, you may
respond as He did: vigorously and without reservation. But, more often our
frustrations will be of the more mundane variety. As long as you live here on
earth, you will face countless opportunities to lose your temper over small,
relatively insignificant events: a traffic jam, a spilled cup of coffee, an
inconsiderate comment, a broken promise. When you are tempted to lose your
temper over the minor inconveniences of life, don’t. Turn instead to God. When
you do, you’ll be following His commandments and giving yourself a priceless
gift…the gift of peace.
In Christ,
Janet
