Controlling my anger




Proverbs 11: 19 “He that is steadfast in righteousness shall attain unto life;
And he that pursuit evil doeth it to his own death.”

As I think and study the Word of God it is clear to me that I am reminded to take control of my mind and with that I am able to control my temper too. Yes it is difficult but I am learning to do this each and every day. When a situation presents itself to me and I feel that I am busy losing it I excuse myself from the company and walk away. I ask the Lord to help me and I decide right there and then whether I want to take part in any battles which present themselves to me. I decided not to enter into, and leave the area or company.

Constant fighting is so draining and I have decided that I am not open for this kind of encounter any more. God understands my heart and I believe He will guide me and show me the way forward.

Don’t think for one minute it is easy, I promise you it isn’t and I really have to watch my mouth and actions when it comes my way.

I know that I am imperfect and I am still learning to deal with many different kinds of things but anger is my biggest problem. 

Prayer
Please help me maintain myself at all times Lord Jesus, I draw near to You in my hour of need and I am clothed with You Lord Jesus. Amen

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God.  On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach.  Are you able to relate?   It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;”  Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD.  After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
