Grace for your spirit
The seed that fell among the thorns, these are the ones that have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with worries and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity. Luke 8:14
Put a potato in a cars exhaust pipe, the engine dies. Take in food, put none out, the constipated body will die.Take in worries fears, and anger and, don't let it go, the spirit will die. Many a spiritual life has been choked to death with worries about the things in this world and have never brought forth fruit nor come to maturity. We cannot avoid some worry, some fear, or some anger, but we must find the solution before it chokes us off. May I suggest the antidote might be faith, hope, and love. For worry, faith. for fear, hope. for anger, love. As the old song went, "You gotta have faith, hope, and charity. That's the way to live successfully. How do I know? The Bible tells me so."
