Two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help; and what he cannot help. – T. Fuller
God scolded Jonah for his misdirected anger at “those sinful” people of Nineveh, people God himself was willing to save. Hmm!
It is often said anger is one letter short of danger, and in many instances it is. It is an emotion that if left unchecked can cause serious harm. We may live in a society of the haves and the have-nots, but we are not called by God to judge them; only to love them. The best way to insure we keep ourselves “under subjection” is to physically help those we can in a loving manner, and pray for those we cannot help, again in love.
Until tomorrow…..

“An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot-tempered one commits many sins.” – Proverbs 29:22
Hope you can make the Sunday School Devotional time this week at 9AM in Parmes Hall.
