The Bible doesn’t tell us not to get angry, it says to be angry and sin not. My mouth is the biggest thing I have to watch! It wants to keep going (mostly because my heart is hurt and it comes out in the form of anger) long after my Poppa has told me to be silent. It seems that silence is so hard for this daughter, but my patient Father keeps working with me! Verse 27, is the verse that really drives it home for me though, “Neither give place to the devil.” So holdup, when I am angry and lose control of that anger who am I giving place to? That hit hard and if I keep that in mind the next time I am in angry it might make it a little easier to hold my tongue! I never want to give the enemy anything in my life and the next time I feel the embers of anger being kindled I will work a little harder to just be still. 💛 ~ Chelle, #f8ithgal
