Proverbs 17:14 "Starting a quarrel is like breaching a dam; so drop the matter before a dispute breaks out.".....22"A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones."…..Philippians 4:5 “Let your gentleness be evident to all, the Lord is near.” The first time I saw the Northern lights, it was by accident. I was very mad at my then husband so I took off for a walk on the golf course and was completely awestruck by the gloriousness of the Northern lights. I tell that story often because of how breathtaking that walk was. To this day, I have no idea what I was so mad about. How many times has that happened to you? You remember being really mad about something but cant remember what it was. This shows us how futile our arguments can be. I have been guilty of fighting with vigor. I am now divorced twice. These verses remind me, a gentle, quiet spirit, a joyful heart and an ability to not start an argument are Godly commands. Today, we may be tempted to fight about something we won't remember tomorrow. Will it be worth the battle? When we fight we often say things that can't be unheard. I have found it's best, not to let my heart get offended in the first place. Today, let’s walk away from potential quarrels and rejoice in the Lord!!
❤️🙏😇 See your Northern lights!!
