Nip It!
Thought for Today:
NIP IT!
Whoever angers you controls you. When you don't deal with anger in a timely
manner, it turns into other negative emotions like resentment, bitterness,
hate. Take action to stop the cycle before the roots are so deep they are
almost impossible to destroy. As Barney Fife would say, "Nip it! Nip it! Nip
it!" --author unknown to me
"Pursue peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no one will
see the Lord. See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no
root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many be defiled;"
Hebrews 12:14-15 NASB
"Strive to live in peace with everybody and pursue that consecration and
holiness without which no one will [ever] see the Lord. Exercise foresight
and be on the watch to look [after one another], to see that no one falls
back from and fails to secure God's grace (His unmerited favor and spiritual
blessing), in order that no root of resentment (rancor, bitterness, or
hatred) shoots forth and causes trouble and bitter torment, and the many
become contaminated and defiled by it--" Hebrews 12:14-15 AMP
