My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.
(James 1:19)

what's the worst thing you've done when angry?
or words said that you wished you could call back?

Philippians 4:4-7
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

For every minute you are angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
Doors of opportunity don't just open , they have to be unlocked & it's up to you to turn the knob.

Genesis 9
20 Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded[a] to plant a vineyard. 21 When he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. 22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside. 23 But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s naked body. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father naked.
24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,
“Cursed be Canaan!
The lowest of slaves
will he be to his brothers.”
Cover up your brother's nakedness.
Often I fall into the trap of laughing at or ridiculing those in the army of Christ who have fallen by the wayside or who have succumbed to temptation.
In this case, Noah had failed, he was drunk and was misbehaving. His son Ham came by only to laugh at him and try magnify the shame that Noah was already in.
Same as what am oft quick to do. I hear someone messed up, I laugh and rush to gossip with friends about him/her.
How I pray that God could help me be like Shem and Japheth. I wont laugh. I will first cover my brother's shame before taking any further action

1 Tim 5:4-8
4 But if a widow has children or grandchildren, these should learn first of all to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family and so repaying their parents and grandparents, for this is pleasing to God. 5 The widow who is really in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day to pray and to ask God for help. 6 But the widow who lives for pleasure is dead even while she lives. 7 Give the people these instructions, so that no one may be open to blame. 8 Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
Interesting...
Ignoring your relatives' plight displeases the Lord!
Take care of your family, especially your wife(husi) and kids!

@ Lolest
But kenyans (i.e not Jews) would rather tithe 10% of their income to pastors (who are not levites) and 'ministries' all the while believing they are serving God.
What a tragedy.
