Anger can be dangerous. It can hurt the person who experiences it, physically, mentally and emotionally and it can cause you to hurt someone else physically mentally and emotionally. Anger can cause you to break every one of the commandments. Remember: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and strength and love your neighbor as yourself." Anger will cause you to not treat God, your neighbor or yourself with Love.

Someone is tempting me to anger today. Tempting me to revenge. If she asks me to do her hair at this very moment, my first inclination would be to comb it harshly, maybe to take a few chunks of hair out. If she asks me to braid it, my inclination would be to jack it up. But then I remember the Bible verse, "Vengence is mine, says the Lord." So if she asks me to do her hair, I will say, no, because I would be tempted to hurt you.

I will pray the prayer for Peace.

Psalm 19:7-11 (New International Version)

7 The law of the LORD is perfect,
       reviving the soul.
       The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy,
       making wise the simple.

8 The precepts of the LORD are right,
       giving joy to the heart.
       The commands of the LORD are radiant,
       giving light to the eyes.

9 The fear of the LORD is pure,
       enduring forever.
       The ordinances of the LORD are sure
       and altogether righteous.

10 They are more precious than gold,
       than much pure gold;
       they are sweeter than honey,
       than honey from the comb.

11 By them is your servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.

Romans 8:28-39 (New American Standard Bible)

28And we know that ^[a]God causes ^(A)all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are ^(B)called according to His purpose.

29For those whom He ^(C)foreknew, He also ^(D)predestined to become ^(E)conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the ^(F)firstborn among many brethren;

30and these whom He ^(G)predestined, He also ^(H)called; and these whom He called, He also ^(I)justified; and these whom He justified, He also ^(J)glorified.

31^(K)What then shall we say to these things? ^(L)If God is for us, who is against us?

32He who ^(M)did not spare His own Son, but ^(N)delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?

33Who will bring a charge against ^(O)God's elect? ^(P)God is the one who justifies;

34who is the one who ^(Q)condemns? Christ Jesus is He who ^(R)died, yes, rather who was ^[b]^(S)raised, who is ^(T)at the right hand of God, who also ^(U)intercedes for us.

35Who will separate us from ^(V)the love of ^[c]Christ? Will ^(W)tribulation, or distress, or ^(X)persecution, or ^(Y)famine, or ^(Z)nakedness, or ^(AA)peril, or sword?

36Just as it is written,
"^(AB)FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG;
WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED."

37But in all these things we overwhelmingly ^(AC)conquer through ^(AD)Him who loved us.

38For I am convinced that neither ^(AE)death, nor life, nor ^(AF)angels, nor principalities, nor ^(AG)things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

39nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from ^(AH)the love of God, which is ^(AI)in Christ Jesus our Lord.

"Yesterday" - Mary Mary

I had enough heartache and enough headaches
I've had so many ups and downs
Don't know how much more i can take
See i decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
Either i'm going to trust you or i may as well walk away
'cause stressing don't make it better
Don't make it better, no way
See i decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
Yesterday, i decided to put my trust in you
Yesterday, i realized that you will being me through
There ain't nothing to hard for my god, no
Any problems that i have
He's greater than them all, so
I decided that i cried my last tear yesterday

Proverbs 2

Moral Benefits of Wisdom

1 My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,

2 turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding,

3 and if you call out for insight
and cry aloud for understanding,

4 and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,

5 then you will understand the fear of the LORD
and find the knowledge of God.

6 For the LORD gives wisdom,
and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

7 He holds victory in store for the upright,
he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,

8 for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones.

9 Then you will understand what is right and just
and fair—every good path.

10 For wisdom will enter your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.

11 Discretion will protect you,
and understanding will guard you.

12 Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men,
from men whose words are perverse,

13 who leave the straight paths
to walk in dark ways,

14 who delight in doing wrong
and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,

15 whose paths are crooked
and who are devious in their ways.

16 It will save you also from the adulteress,
from the wayward wife with her seductive words,

17 who has left the partner of her youth
and ignored the covenant she made before God. ^[a]

18 For her house leads down to death
and her paths to the spirits of the dead.

19 None who go to her return
or attain the paths of life.

20 Thus you will walk in the ways of good men
and keep to the paths of the righteous.

21 For the upright will live in the land,
and the blameless will remain in it;

22 but the wicked will be cut off from the land,
and the unfaithful will be torn from it.

All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.

Ps 73:25- 26 Whom have I in heaven but You? And besides You, I desire nothing on earth. My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

The bible is so beautiful. Each time you read a verse, there can be a deeper and deeper understanding. In my weakness, He is strong!

Who am I - Casting Crowns

Sat, 12 May 2007 10:05:25 GMT

Who am I?
That the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt.
Who am I?
That the bright and morning star,
Would choose to light the way,
For my ever wandering heart.

Bridge:
Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.

I am yours
