How Often Have We Heard Someone Say:
"I Lost My Head!"
After Acting Presumptuously
And
In Haste!?!
Oh, How Satan ... The Bounty-Hunter
Loves To Hear Those Words Uttered
In The Leisurely Activity Called Sorrowful Repentance!
Beloved,
A Scornful Dog Eats Dirty Pudding
And
The Impulsive, Hasty To Be Angry Person
Gets To Slowly, Sorrowfully, Eat
The Usually Unpalatable Patty Of
Remorse And Regret
If
They Are Wise Unto The Saving Of Their Own Soul!
We Are Imbued By Our Maker-Savior With
The Ability To Think Clearly
And
Reason Wisely!
Unfortunately, Many Of Us Choose To Act Irrationally
Impulsively ... Foolishly
Giving In To Sinful-Self While Forgetting That
All Acts Have Outcomes
Many Of Which Are Unintended
Most Of Which Can Never Be Corrected!
Please Don't Put Your Brain In Park
While Your Mouth, Hands, And Feet Are In Motion!
Let Us Remember What We Were Taught In Primary School
When Learning To Cross The Street:
Look Right!
Look Left!
And
Look Right Again
And
Then Cross
If
The Way Is Clear!
Weigh The Pros!
Weigh The Con
And
Remember That Impulsiveness
Never Lays Out The Warm, Comfortable
Pretty Bed Of Peace And Quiet!
Think Twice ... Even Thrice
Before You Act, Act Up, Or Act Out!
Please Practice Self-Control:
It Is One Of The Choice Fruits Of The Holy Spirit!
Peace!
Dear Lord, I Beseech You To Take Me Under Your Control By The Sweet Holy Spirit Who Leads Us Into All Truth! Please Keep Me Calm!
