Dealing With People Tensions
Ephesians 4:23-32
We all deal with a lot of tension in our lives, which isn't good for our Mental Health. Here is the key to happiness. I also wrote some ground Rules as food for thought.
23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
25 Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body. 26 “In your anger do not sin”: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, 27 and do not give the devil a foothold. 28 Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need. 29 Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
Ground Rules:
1) Embrace honesty in your relationships.
2) Don't let anger turn into a foothold.
3) Learn to be a giver, not a taker.
4) We speak to build up, not tear down.
5) We get rid of baggage, that grieves the Spirit.
