Proverbs 15:14 “A hot tempered man stirs up dissension, but a patient man calms a quarrel.”
Who are you? Quick to anger or a patient calm force? Proverbs 16:3 “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.” I used to be so full of rage. It would take me over!! I discovered athletes and that gave me a physical way to discharge the rage. I still will take a walk or go do something physical when i feel stress come on. Many times I cant release my emotions physically. I have learned to take my anxiety about whatever, and give it to Jesus. This is a solution that truly calms my soul and can be done in a moment. It’s easy to get caught up in emotions and be reactionary. Discernment, trusting God’s got this, is how I can be patient and calm and help dissolve a quarrel. What will you do today when you have the opportunity to be hot tempered or calm?
