DON'T BE QUICKLY PROVOKED

"Take your time. Think it through. Find the will of God." Henry Parsons Crowell

PRAY: Lord, I want to be wise. I want to hold my tongue so that I am not a fool. Would You give me the strength, wisdom and discernment to know when righteous anger is appropriate, and when I am reacting with a destructive anger? I need the Holy Spirit to guide me and handle my anger for me. I pray this in Jesus' name, AMEN!

REFLECT: We often think that people around us are fools. Could it be that they are just angry, and they appear to be fools? And how often have we gotten angry, and become foolish in our response? Our anger creates a need for us to depend on the wisdom of God to guide us in our responses, so that we are not fools, but wise followers of Christ.

ACT: What makes me provoked in my spirit? And is it making me a fool? Write down anything that you know is making your spirit angry. Then identify the root of that anger, and pray about changing or fixing that root. Make it a goal to pray peace into your spirit so that you will be WISE!
