Actions - Reactions

4/24/2016

"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." -Proverbs 15:1 (NIV)
In physics, Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion is often summarized as for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.  When we deal with feelings and emotions, this is not always true.  Too often anger is not met with its opposite, but instead with more anger.  When facing such a situation, we need to assess and reflect on our behavior...the actions and reactions!

Proverbs reminds us that we can diminish anger with a gentler approach.  When we are faced with situations that may stir up anger, we should try to react with God's love in mind.  A calmer, gentler approach in a chaotic and emotional situation can lead to a better end for everyone involved.  In every situation, we can rely on God to provide us with the wisdom and strength to react in a manner that is best for everyone and for God's glory!

When caught in actions, rely on God and follow His ways in reacting!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for always guiding me.  Help me to hear You and follow Your ways in whatever situations I am facing.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
