James 1:20 ‘For the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God.’

When we are moved by the love of Christ
then relationships can be restored;
hurts can be healed;
peace will fill our mind;
joy will fill our heart;
and conviction can lead others to repentance.
The love of Christ will always seek reconciliation not retaliation.
When self sits enthroned in our life
then the works of the flesh will control
our thoughts, our words, our attitude, our manner of life.
When we put on new life in Christ
then His righteousness will be seen in us
through the outworking of a Christ-centred life.
