If you remember from last week we talked about how we should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. This weeks mini devo falls inline with that. In Ecclesiastes the writes states that we should NOT be quick to become angry, (so instead be slow to anger).
But this writer doesn't just stop there. Thats what I love about this verse. In life we have rules. Parents tell their children to do something, child asks why, and parents doesn't give a reason, they just respond DO IT!
God doesn't owe us a reason for anything, but here He chooses to give us a reason. He says that anger is foolish, that it only belongs in the hearts of fools.
We have a choice everyday, to live in a way that blesses the Lord (grateful for His mercy) or to live in anger, ignoring God's blessings and mercy. My question for you (and myself) how do you want to live your life?
