You also be patient and strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near! Brothers and sisters, do you grumble and blame each other, so you will not be punished. Indeed, the judge stands at the door. (James 5: 8-9)

Reading a year: Ezekiel 10-13

I never stayed at home rotten wood that can be heard next door neighbor. Once the grandmother in the house next door scolding and cursing his grandson for a long time. The originator of the anger may be trivial for some of us, but not for them. The grandmother grandson spilled powder, but the powder was counted expensive goods for family life was very mediocre.
The pressures of life often sparked our anger, even sometimes to explode uncontrollably. Facing the pressures of life, we tend to grumble and blame others. James called it a sin that can invite punishment. Grumbling and blaming others might be able to slightly ease the feeling. However, God wants us to be patient and persevering. Suffering is part of a test of faith. James warned that the Lord Chief Justice, it is near. We will reap the sweet results of our perseverance as farmers are waiting for the results of cropping (v. 7). Also like Job who have the gift of abundant after a period of suffering (v. 11).
Are you currently being squeezed by the pressures of life? You are tired and weary, as if your suffering will never end? Your relationships with family, friends, and coworkers are increasingly deteriorating? Remind yourself that God is compassionate and merciful (v. 11). Your patience will certainly face pressure sweet fruit when the Lord comes again in His Glory.-HEM
