The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. (Psalm 103:8)
Slow to anger is something our culture doesnt seem to quite grasp in the days of violence in the world of non-christians and christians. How fast are we to get angry when someone jumps in front of us at the grocery store or cuts us off on the freeway?
The holiday season it seems as though anger stews within mass amounts of people, anger towards not having enough, anger towards loved ones stemming from unforgiveness, and even anger towards God from many whom have lost loved ones and cant see the Why He see’s.

Right now during this season the world is groaning, the enemy is working overtime to bring guilt, fear, condemnation to everyone, his mission is to seek, kill and steal joy.
The Lord is longing for us to manifest the Fruits of His Spirit that are inside of us, and be His tools for hope, peacemaking and restoration, not only to the body of Christ but to those that havent had an encounter with thier saviour. The darkness is falling all around and if we take our eyes off of ourselves and our needs and place them on Jesus and what the Father needs we will start transforming into the Bride Christ longs for us to be.
This holiday season the Spirit is asking us to be slow to anger, abounding in love, compassionate and gracious, to love the ONE He puts in front of us daily, whether it be in the store, at church or even at home. Chrsitmas is the time of year we celebrate the birth of our King, lets allow him to be displayed for all to see within us as we go throughout our day. We never know who is watching after all we could be saving a life or entertaining an angel, shine Beloved
