I often have to allow the Lord to curb my hot red-headed temper. After all, it is the meek not the the demanding that will inherit the earth.
Blessed are the meek
Meekness Isn't Weakness...
Meekness Is gentleness - power under control...
______________
Blessed are the meek:
for they shall inherit the earth.
Matthew 5:5 KJV
______________
For evil men will be cut off, but those
who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look for them, they will not be found.
But the meek will inherit the land
and enjoy great peace.
Psalm 37:9-11 NIV
______________
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness (meekness), self-control; against such things there is no law.
Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:22-24 NASB
I pray daily for a servant's heart and a gentle spirit. This is only possible for me to obtain by continuing to humble myself and pray.
