Have you ever noticed that stressful times bring out the worst and sometimes the best in people. We should not be surprised when kids act like kids, but when adults act like kids it is a real eye opener.
I have been experiencing some really good and bad parts of behavior this week. It is hard to maneuver around the rawness of what people are feeling to get at the heart of the matter. I am keen enough to know many things said are coming from pain. Never the less words hurt and hurt deeper than a physical cutting.
Lord, please help us all to watch over the words we speak and the actions we take when done in haste, out of frustration or pain. Be a watchman at the threshold of our heart and bridle our tongues. Amen
So as I knelt on the mountain, the air very quiet, I ask God for His hand on my life. I ask that peace be present. I'm pleased He loves us enough to hear us in all phases of life. I am excited to have His joy which belongs to all of us.
