WILL YOU ACCEPT IT?

"For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind." - Ralph Waldo Emerson


Once upon a time, long ago, there lived an old warrior. One afternoon, a younger warrior - known for his complete lack of manners - arrived his compound: this young warrior had never lost a fight. Hearing of the older warrior's reputation, he'd come to defeat the old warrior and increase his fame. All his students were against the idea, but the old man accepted the challenge. They gathered at the town square, and just then the young warrior began to release a barrage of verbal assault on the old master. He threw a few rocks at him, and spat in his face. For hours, he did everything to provoke the old warrior, but to no avail. This young warrior got upset. Feeling humiliated, he left. Disappointed, the students asked:
"How could you bear such indignity? Why didn’t you use your sword, even knowing you might lose the fight, instead of displaying your cowardice in front of us all?"
"If someone comes to you with a gift, and you refuse it, what then happens?" asked the old warrior.

"the bearer takes it back." replied one of his students.
"The same goes for anger. When they're not accepted, they remain with the one who brought them."

Joel Osteen sad, "Every day we have plenty of opportunities to get angry, stressed or offended. But what you're doing when you indulge these negative emotions is giving something outside yourself power over your happiness. You can choose to not let little things upset you." Laurence J. Peter added, "Speak when you are angry - and you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret."

Anger lies in the bosom of fools. The devils wants you to perpetually remain angry, so he can have a legal backing to delay or deny you of God's blessings for you. Kenneth Hagin, talked about a lady who was ill for many years, because she held on to anger. As a new week dawns, let's not allow the devil steal our blessings. No matter how upset external or internal factors will try to make you - as much as lieth within you - live like Christ would, and smile away that rage. Put the devil to shame.
