We talked this morning about how easy it is to add to quarreling and strife--but how important God's instruction is. Here are the verses we read to help us NOT to add to strife.
Proverbs 15:18--"A hot-tempered man stirs up dissension, but a patient man calms a quarrel."
Proverbs 10:12--"Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all sins."
Proverbs 26:21--"As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome man for kindling strife."
Patience and love. That's what we need more of. Love covers (protects, extinguishes, turns our eyes away from) all sins. It is good to help others be protected--and that we not add fuel to sins, but to help them disappear!
God bless and strengthen you all in His Word! KP
