From the devotional Truth Or Trash I am Loved! Truth or Trash? When people are angry with me, they must not love me. See It - Grab a food that is fresh, like an apple, and something that is old or ready to be trashed. Which one would you rather eat? The good food is just like all of our positive and encouraging words. They are good and healthy for us. The rotten food is like angry or mean words. They are poison to our minds and bodies, so we need to toss them in the trash! Read It - Truth or Trash? When people are angry with me, they must not love me. Trash! It does not mean they do not love you. It just means they have not chosen to live out of Gods good fruit. When someone is angry with you its easy to be angry in return. We have a choice just like you did in the activity. You can choose poisonous words or encouraging words! The Bible tells us that Gods good fruit lives inside His children. That fruit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. We always have the choice to respond with Gods fruit. Discuss It - Think about the last time you were angry with someone or someone was angry with you. How can you respond with Gods fruit next time?
