Really PO’ed…
I was reading today..
1 John 4:20-21 ESV
If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.
I need to remember that..
Ephesians 6:12 ESV
For we do not wrestle against flesh, and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
God would you teach me to be humble, and sustain and preserve humility in my heart. I ask that Lord you would cool the fires of anger, and quench it with the cool rivers of your spirit. Would you alone be enthroned in my heart, not anger, not pride, not self-righteousness — but would replace that with love, humility, peace, and joy. Daddy I can’t do this… I want to explode and blow things up… but I know the battle belongs to you and you are good, and you provide. Father help me in this time of trouble, preserve me — let me not sin against you or against man…
by His blood, and the finished work of the cross,
Sin has lost its power, and death its sting — Amen.
