"Fools give vent to all their anger; but the wise, biding their time, control it." - Proverbs 29:11 Do you ever get so angry and upset that you bubble up inside until you finally spill over? Your wrath has no mercy as it spews out to anyone and everyone in your way. Pleading forgiveness from your God and your neighbors is the only way to reverse your actions. Lord Jesus, thank you for your Divine Mercy. Stop me in my tracks when my tendency is to bubble up and spill anger unto those around me. May all who incur my wrath be as forgiving to me as You are. Amen. Grass ... what a concept. Who came up with that? It's either too dry or too wet, with attacks from insects, grubs, Red Thread, Brown Patch, "the biggest mushrooms ever seen" or some other killer fungus constantly posing challenges. The colored flowers on the clover and dandelions are pretty but frowned upon by the neighbors. A lot of work, time, frustration and money are spent trying to grow "perfect" grass.
Jesus said, "So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect." (Matthew 5:48). Did He really mean that? Or we often hear, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Really? I like my grass just as it is. With all of its weeds and bugs and fungus, like me, it's perfect! How is your "grass"? |
