Peace Bearer


When someone throws a temper, our first gut reaction is to throw one right back at them. Not a pretty scene from all standpoints. As Christians, we have a choice. When we recall the Word of Jesus, we can claim His Spirit and work to react calmly and logically. Regaining self-control helps us to remember that each person is equal in His eyes and each deserves the other's respect. Yes, it is hard to be yelled at and bullied, especially when your honor is at stake, but the purest honor is one of harmony.  Let the sparks between you not be ones of anger, but of love, as you walk in the footsteps of Christ.


You are joined together with peace through the Spirit, so make every effort to continue together in this way. - Ephesians 4:3
