Some saw Jesus as a threat to
Their own status. They wanted to see
Him killed. Their rage blinded them
With their thinking. Jesus, being humble,
Always had wanted to elevate them.
As far as we are concerned, we see how
Many times our resentment, jealousy,
Or anger has tempted us to do
Something that we knew was wrong.
We have done this out of a desire for
Revenge or as a way to blow off steam.
In our own church we can find ourselves
Speaking against people whose experience of
God or faith doesn’t conform to our own.
We should not let our emotions carry us
To do something we will regret. When in
Certain uncomfortable situations we
Should really think before we open our
Mouths and say something we will later
Regret. We must pray to the Holy Spirit
And ask that our heart be softened and
That we learn how to forgive. Then we
Will feel free.
