So, I want to be righteous?
James 1:19-20
So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
Personal Challenge
It is easy to allow my emotions and my self-centeredness to take over control of me and respond to offenses quickly and with anger. This is ungodly. I am admonished to slow down and listen to all sides of the issue, to hold my tongue so as to not add to the offense, and to hold my wrath and judgment for these are not mine to give out. Oh, how much I need the Holy Spirit to do this within me!
