Proverbs chapter 16, verse 32. Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
Do you admire people who are able to control their temper? Those who, when provoked don’t react, those who, when they’re cut up in traffic, just shrug and say, oh, well, and carry on driving.
The writer of this Proverb respects that, desires that, recommends that, that we would be slow to anger, that we would rule our spirit, that we would be self controlled and disciplined and moderate in the way that we react to people.
the more we gain a godly perspective, the less these trivial insults will bother us. The more we see things the way God sees them, the more our attention will be focused rightly on things that matter to him, rather than things that bother us.
