#Dealing with #Anger




Colossians 3: 8 “But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth.”

I am telling you there are some people who know what to say and do to make one “lose it” and they get a kick out of it. Then before you know it you have been cussing and swearing. I go red in the face and want to cry with anger. Do you know what I am telling you? 

I seriously needed urgent help and I am still working on this anger situation and to make matters worse I suppress my anger and sometimes or rather most of the time I explode at time.

I have been fasting and praying about my temper and I have brought this matter in urgent prayer to the Lord. I have come to a place that I now keep quiet and I start reminding myself that the Lord Jesus Christ is in control. I start clothing myself with the Lord Jesus. I ask the Lord Jesus to assist me.

This has been a process and I am honest in saying it is taking some time. I am also getting to the place in my life that I pray about my reaction and ask God to help me.

Prayer

Heavenly Father please keep watch over my mouth, my temper my anger. I come humbly asking forgive me and help me deal with my words and my way going forward. In the holy name of the Lord Jesus Christ Amen

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

The View from the Sycamore Tree

"Ill-gotten treasures have no lasting value, but righteousness delivers from death. The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." Proverbs 10:2–10 Reflection The Turning Point: I used to think that by this stage of my life. The path was already set in stone. I looked at the mirror and saw the silver hair and the lines of age. I felt as though I was simply watching the clock run out on my dreams. I’ve spent years in the "midlife crisis." Wrestling with the ghosts of regrets, careers that didn't flourish, relationships that felt the strain of time. The nagging fear of being "less than" in a world that prises youth and worldly success. But then I saw Zacchaeus. He was a man who had spent his life traveling in the wrong direction. Chasing "ill-gotten treasures" that left his soul hungry. When he climbed that tree, he wasn't just trying t...
