We live in an angry world. Folk say such mean things on facebook and X with no compunction. Teens bully their weaker peers sending out wicked texts/demeaning pictures. Parents break out in fights at little league games and model anger to their children. Road rage is common. Someone cuts in front of another, there is retaliation, and suddenly a gun is pulled out. Why such uncontrolled anger? Why such rage? Paul said in Romans12:21, “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.” The answer is simple: first, you must be a follower of Christ, and second, you must be spirit controlled. Paul said in verse 14, “Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.” Bless them Instead of blessing them out. Hey, today, try to follow verse 10, “Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another.” Put Jesus first, others next, and put yourself last … and have a good day.
