Happy are the teachable!
Matthew 5:5

Are you teachable? Or do you not need anyone to teach you anything?

Many times people who are not teachable get angry. Angry people get angry because they think that someone might take away something that belongs to them.

Jesus teaches us to stop fighting to have things our way. He tells us to let other people go first. The only way the world will come to God is if they see someone who does the opposite of what they do and has a blessed life.

Anger lives in the heart of a fool.
Ecc. 7:9

Do not follow the ways of an angry man -it will be a trap!
Prov. 22:25

Father, I do not want to be like a wild horse who does whatever he wants. I do not have to protect myself because my life is Yours. Right now I am making a fist and letting it open as I let all the things of anger go out of my life.
