silencing the cymbal...

Cluttered thoughts... lead to a cluttered heart...

Feeling like a clanging cymbal... as the day begins... love lacking... in action and word...

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels,
 but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
1Corinthians 13:1 ESV
(my emphasis)

Approaching life with muddled thoughts of grumbling... discontent... self-pity...

Love is patient and kind... 
It does not insist on its own way;
it is not irritable or resentful...
1Corinthians 13:4-5 ESV
(emphasis mine)

Reminders... in my house... set in places... for just such attitudes...




Do everything without grumbling and arguing...
Philippians 2:14 HCSB

Songs memorized... to sing... my heart... back to peace...


Fighting to remember...
the Savior...

And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.
Luke 1:47 NASB

His Love...

Love bears all things, 
believes all things, 
hopes all things, 
endures all things.
1Corinthians 13:7 ESV

His peace...

His peace will guard your hearts and minds
as you live in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:7 NLT

His strength...

For I can do everything through Christ,
who gives me strength.
Philippians 4:13 NLT

Die to self...

"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live,
but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh
I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and
gave Himself up for me. ..."
Galatians 2:20 NASB

And live... in... Him...
