怒りをおそくする者は勇士にまさり、 自分の心を治める者は城を攻め取る者にまさる。箴言 16:32 自分にとって、ちょっと痛い聖句です。年々、少しは良くなってきてるが、私は怒りに遅い者ではありません。 昔は、いつも落ち着いていて何があっても怒らない人は弱い人だと思っていました。しかし、聖書はその反対を教えています。強い人です。なぜなら、自分の感情を抑えられるからです。 聖書朗読　エレミヤ書23-35 箴言16 He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. Proverbs 16:32 Ouch! That is what I thought when I read this verse this morning. Although I'm getting better little by little, I still have a long way to go when it comes to the topic of being slow to anger. I used to have a tendency to think that a calm person who never gets angry is a weak person, but that is not what God says. Someone who can control his spirit is a great person.
