Do not lose your temper

A MAN’S WISDOM GIVES HIM PATIENCE; IT IS TO HIS GLORY TO OVERLOOK AN OFFENSE. PROVERBS 19:11 * NIV
Sometimes we may let the actions of another cause us to lose control of our temper. Before we do, it is important to remember that AN ANGRY MAN STIRS UP DISSENSION, AND A HOT-TEMPERED ONE COMMITS MANY SINS. ( PROVERBS 29:22 ) FOR AS CHURNING THE MILK PRODUCES BUTTER, AND AS TWISTING THE NOSE PRODUCES BLOOD, SO STIRRING UP ANGER PRODUCES STRIFE. PROVERBS 30:33
After all MY DEAR BROTHERS, TAKE NOTE OF THIS: EVERYONE SHOULD BE QUICK TO LISTEN, SLOW TO SPEAK AND SLOW TO BECOME ANGRY, FOR MAN’S ANGER DOES NOT BRING ABOUT THE RIGHTEOUS LIFE THAT GOD DESIRES. JAMES 1:19-20
So the next time that someone treats you wrongly turn it over to God to handle, and do not lose your temper or try to get even with them. FOR WE KNOW HIM WHO SAID, “IT IS MINE TO AVENGE; I WILL REPAY,” AND AGAIN, “THE LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE.” HEBREWS 10:30
Therefore, try your best to keep your words soft and sweet. For we never know from day to day which words we’ll have to eat! Also remember ABOVE ALL, LOVE EACH OTHER DEEPLY, BECAUSE LOVE COVERS OVER A MULTITUDE OF SINS. Amen 1 PETER 4:8
Nothing is impossible with God

And Jesus said; “WITH MEN THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE, BUT WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! MATTHEW 19:26 *NKJV
When you are facing something that seems impossible to you, have faith, for nothing is impossible with God on your side!” After all is it not written: FOR WITH GOD NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE! LUKE 1:37 For; HE WHO IS IN YOU IS GREATER THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD. 1 JOHN 4:4
So don’t give up when facing what seems impossible to you. For you do believe in miracles don’t you? Well, isn’t a miracle something that has happened that seemed impossible at the time?
Therefore the next time you find yourself thinking that something is impossible; remember the first verse of this message and: WATCH, STAND FAST IN THE FAITH, BE BRAVE, BE STRONG LET ALL THAT YOU DO BE DONE WITH LOVE. 1 CORINTHIANS 16:13-14 After all God has said: “BEHOLD, I AM THE LORD, THE GOD OF ALL FLESH. IS THERE ANYTHING TOO HARD FOR ME?” Amen! JEREMIAH 32:27
God is a friend

God is a friend and companion for those who love and obey His Word. For as king David said, YOUR WORD IS A LAMP TO MY FEET AND A LIGHT FOR MY PATH. PSALM 119:105
After all it is written: THE LORD HIMSELF GOES BEFORE YOU AND WILL BE WITH YOU; HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU. So why not spend a little time in prayer with God each and every day. You will find Him to be your very best Friend indeed! Amen.
Below is a lovely poem I will like to share with you. It is titled
“My Unseen Guest”
God walks the trail with me each day,
He is my Friend, My Guide
However long or steep the road,
He’s ever by my side.
He sits with me in evening’s hush;
We speak, we laugh, we pray,
And my heart sings a joyful song…
He’s never far away.
And through each dark and lonely night,
He’s guarding from above.
In perfect peace, I rest secure
In His eternal love.
Poet, Lee Simmons
Let your light shine before men.

LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS AND GIVE GLORY TO YOUR FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN. MATTHEW 5:6 *NKJV
YOU WERE ONCE DARKNESS, NOW YOU ARE LIGHT IN THE LORD. WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT. For, IF WE WALK IN THE LIGHT AS HE IS IN THE LIGHT, WE HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER, AND THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST HIS SON CLEANSES US FROM ALL SIN. EPHESIANS 5:8 & 1 JOHN 1:6-7
Now how do we walk in the light? Well, your little light shines every time you smile at someone, or do a good deed for them. Also when you take the time to help someone in need, or share God’s Word with another. When you reach out to someone who is suffering with pain or sorrow. Thus when, through you actions, you show others what being a Christian is all about. Thus: LOVE YOU NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. MATTHEW 19:19
Now, if you think your little light is a dim one, well perhaps, as I believe, our little lights are magnified in the immense mirror of God’s Love. Perhaps His reflectors are our hearts, spreading the flame of kindness to one another. Therefore, why not shine you light on others today? You will not only help them but it will warm your heart as well!
In Closing, just think, “If everyone would light, just one little candle, what a bright World this would be.” Amen.
Sing praises to our God

PRAISE THE LORD. HOW GOOD IT IS TO SING PRAISES TO OUR GOD, HOW PLEASANT AND FITTING TO PRAISE HIM. PSALM 147:1 *NIV
Why not attend the Church of your choice today, where you may join with others as they praise our Heavenly Father. After all, just think of all the blessings He has given to you, including His Love and saving Grace! So LET US GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD FOR HIS UNFAILING LOVE AND HIS WONDERFUL DEEDS FOR MEN. ( PSALM 107:8 )
King David best described this, for in a Psalm he gave to Asaph, for he wrote: SING TO THE LORD, ALL THE EARTH; PROCLAIM HIS SALVATION DAY AFTER DAY. DECLARE HIS GLORY AMONG THE NATIONS, HIS MARVELOUS DEEDS AMONG ALL PEOPLES. FOR GREAT IS THE LORD AND MOST WORTHY OF PRAISE; HE IS TO BE FEARED [revered} ABOVE ALL gods. ASCRIBE TO THE LORD THE GLORY DUE HIS NAME. BRING AN OFFERING AND COME BEFORE HIM; WORSHIP THE LORD IN THE SPLENDOR OF HIS HOLINESS. ( 1 CHRONICLES 16:23-25 & 29 )
So, why not worship the Lord in the splendor of His Holiness by attending your Church today. There you may GREET ONE ANOTHER WITH A HOLY KISS. For THE CHURCHES OF CHRIST GREET YOU. Amen! ( ROMANS 16:16 )
