04/08 James 1:19-20
19 Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. 20 Human anger[a] does not produce the righteousness[b] God desires.
LIFE
Life is quick.
It is unnerving.
Help often seems far away.
We are too often offended.
Slow down.
Think through the issue.
Give others the benefit of the doubt.
Hold your anger, love one another.
When you are angry you are almost always wrong.
There is no room for selfishness in the kingdom.
Being angry is selfish.
