The Lenten season is almost upon us. Time to either take up or give up a cause for the duration of this 40 day penitential period. I ran into these Bible passages recently and have decided that I need to give up my anger this year … especially my instantaneous outbursts when "discussing" controversial subjects with hubbie! Said another way … I need to take up peace on a full time basis!
My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life the God desires. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.
James 1: 19-21
And now I can't find the other passage. Guess we already deleted it out of our email!
