Today: A Calm Mind.


But if we walk in the light, as he is in the
light, we have fellowship with one another,
and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses
us from all sin.
1 John 1:7

Know this, my beloved brothers: let every
person be quick to hear, slow to speak,
slow to anger; for the anger of man does
not produce the righteousness of God.
James 1:19-20

Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding,
but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.
Proverbs 14:29

On a journey towards being a pure Christian, anger
tends to be something that’s left behind. Our temper
flares up, and we forget our calling.

As soon as we calm back down, we go back to
trying to be a good Christian again. Our tempers
are going against God.

Remain calm, and try to let go of any instances where
you want to pull the proverbial trigger on your
temper. Just like the old WWII poster from across
the pond used to say: “Remain Calm and Carry On.”
