Anger And Unforgiveness

Anger and unforgiveness are emotional weights that can trap the heart in pain and bitterness.  They are like a poison that can slowly destroy us from the inside out. They can lead to bitterness, resentment, and even physical health problems.  Ephesians 4:26 clearly says "Be angry and not sin..." And Psalm 37:8 says "cease from anger and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil" Anger does not solve anything! 𝑰𝑻 𝑩𝑼𝑰𝑳𝑫𝑺 𝑵𝑶𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑵𝑮 𝑩𝑼𝑻 𝑫𝑬𝑺𝑻𝑹𝑶𝒀𝑺 𝑬𝑽𝑬𝑹𝒀𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑵𝑮!  𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘪𝘵 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶. Anger is an acidic substance that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to the vessel in which it is poured, often doing more harm to the person holding them than to anyone else.

Building a Love that Lasts: The Essence of a Long-Term Courtship

What is the essence of a long-term Courtship in a Relationship? Great question! I don’t think it is possible to give a one-way-or-the-other type of answer to it. What is important to remember is that every situation is unique. What may be best for one couple might not work for another at all.  One of the most important elements in a courtship relationship to me is the emphasis on discerning marriage. In one way a courtship differs from dating is that the couple has chosen to use this time together to discern whether or not marriage is their calling. It is not just a series of dates without direction.  Some couples will have a fairly good idea early on in their relationship if they are called to  marriage. A courtship should still give them time to allow them to grow in a Christ-centered relationship. Time spent wisely in a courtship can greatly bless the marriage that springs forth from it.  For some couples, it can take a long time...
