...let every person

    be quick to hear,

slow to speak,

slow to anger;

for the anger of man

does not produce

the righteousness of God.

             James 1. 19

(Boy, do we have that backwards.

Live in such a way

that the grace of God

                is seen in you.

Even in

      this impossible situation.

May others see

    something different in you.

And that would be Jesus.)
