Slow to Anger...

WOW! The Lord has been working in my life. Many of you know, but in case you didn't get the memo, I am working at a summer camp this summer.

I have an amazing opportunity to pour life into kids and my team mates.

God is showing me how his creation is good by putting me at an outdoor summer camp. He has also been teaching me something I believe a lot of people have read in the bible but do not take it to heart, or put it into practice.

James 1:19-20

19 My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,20 because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.

It is so easy to have this mind set and to not play it out. Wow, I have know these bible verses for a long time, however, I usually do not practice them. How great is it that God gives us grace when we do not listen to his word? I am so thankful for God's grace and glory that He shows me when I get angry and do not listen to others, let alone Him.

Now that I am at camp, I have to put these things into practice in order to do God's good will here. I encourage y'all to study what the scripture says about anger and our tongue. It is inherently bad but can be tamed and used for good.
