When God says...
“A wrathful man stirs up strife, But he who is slow to anger allays contention.” (Proverbs 15:18 NKJV)
We are warned that in our life critters sneak in to create trouble. They have semblance to a relative, to a friend, to a co-worker, to a partner, or to an agent of good tidings. But, behind the façade, their hearts are filled with wrath. It deems to have the presence of peacemakers when they are around. In their wake follows contentions and wreckage of destroyed relationships and wounded being. We could ask ourselves - would that be me? God forbid!
Well, if so - we sadly are, time to turn around! Praises be to God, there's someone who we can turn to for mending and restoration. One who loves us so much, that it won’t matter who and what we are. He meets us where we are at. He prefers to cross path with broken, sick and sinful people. He is the restorer of life! He said: ‘I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” (Mark 2:17b)
His mercies endure forever. His name is Jesus. Let's surrender to Him, rest in His grace by faith and plead like the Psalmist did, as it is written: "Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” (Psalms 51:9, 10 KJV)
And I say, AMEN!
