He pointed out in context of the passage that while it is a good life principle for dealing with others it has to do with our attitude toward the Word of God. It has to do with being 'open' to what God has to say to you through His scriptures; putting away our prideful ways and trying God's way in those tough areas of our lives. The Bible can be terribly convicting and very personal at times...your choices are either to submit to Him or to conversely 'be quick to stop listening, quick to speak, and quick to anger'.<BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/><BR/>kafAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
