Introduction/ Impatience?

Hello fellow west-siders. I've been appointed the new blog person thingy (w/e they're called). i will try and post something at least once every week. it all depends on my work load.

So I was reading Proverbs 15 the other day and in verse 1 it says "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." I thought about that and I realized that whenever we are impatient, we are angry. It seems so simple, but I don't think a lot of us think about that (i know i don't). Say your mom asks you to do some extra work after your done with homework and you become impatient. You are actually angry because your mom is taking time away from something "better" that you could be doing. It's an interesting thought.



Till next time,
David

When I am impatient I am angry... this is convicting to me most when I am driving. My impatience (anger) at the other drivers is that they are not allowing me to do what I want. What a selfish thing.

David, thanks for pointing out that thought.

Very interesting... how often we think that we've got something better to do then what the other person asked us to do. Think about it though; when we do what the other person asks, not only are we serving them and blessing them, we are storing up treasure in heaven. That's way better than playing video or computer games.
