Good Morning, CONQUERING EVERYDAY FRUSTRATIONS “You have heard that the law of Moses says. ’Do not murder. If you commit murder, you are subject to judgment.’ But I say, if you are angry with someone, you are subject to judgment.” Matthew 5:21 NLT Life is full of frustrations: some great and some small. On occasion, you, like Jesus, will confront evil, and when you do, you may respond vigorously and without reservation. But, more often your frustrations will be of the more mundane variety, as long as you live here on earth, you will face countless opportunities to lose your temper over small, relatively insignificant events: a traffic jam, a spilled cup of coffee, an inconsiderate comment, a broken promise. When you are tempted to lose your temper over the minor inconveniences of life, don’t. Turn away from anger, hatred, bitterness, and regret. Turn instead to God. When you do, you’ll be following His commandments and giving yourself a priceless gift … the gift of peace. A Daily Proverb A hot tempered man stirs up dissention, but a patient man calms a quarrel. Proverbs 15:18 NIV
