As a pastor, I've seen firsthand how love can turn to anger in a chaotic world. When we're surrounded by noise and distractions, it's easy to let our emotions get the best of us. But as Christians, we're called to a higher standard. Love remembers its own offenses and sins, and therefore doesn't constantly pick at others. It keeps no record of wrongs, and doesn't take a count of wrongdoing. When we do this, we're not just transforming our relationships with others, but also with ourselves.

When anger takes hold, it can be a heavy burden to bear. It's like a nagging salesperson that we wish would disappear, but it still shows up and causes us to groan. But what if we could transform that anger into something more? What if we could become peacemakers, not just with others, but with our own enemies? That's what Scripture teaches us - that love can conquer even the most difficult of circumstances. By keeping our wits about us and not letting anger last till the next day, we can break free from the cycle of anger and become the people God created us to be.

As I reflect on my own life, I'm reminded of the importance of imitating God. When we're angry, it's often because we don't trust Him to work things out. But what if we could trust Him more? What if we could see that He's a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abounding in love? That's the kind of love that can transform our relationships, our communities, and even our world. As I look to my own family, I pray that I can model this kind of love for my wife Susan and our children, Joshua and Rebecca.
