Count to Ten


“… But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God.”  James 1:19-20.

The biggest problem I have when I am angry is that I don’t get anything done.  I waste all my energy fuming about whatever or whoever it is that I am ticked off at.  Then there is that problem of running my mouth excessively when I am mad.  Not to mention that both of these cause me to become deaf to any and all possible explanations regarding whatever it is that I am mad about. 

James three good points: listen, evaluate, speak and count to ten before getting mad. 

Now, take ten and be righteous.
