Easy Does It
When you find yourself in a troublesome situation, let your goal be to simply stay calm. Do not play into the devil's hands by getting upset.
The devil wants you to lose control so that he can gain control. Remember, the devil sets you up to get you upset.
Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour.
--- 1 Peter 5:8
My own reflection on this Thought:
* To stay calm in times of trouble seem impossible. While our emotions drag us to the feeling of anger, sadness, and every single feeling that leads us in chaotic heart-condition, the question is could we stay calm?
It's hard. I believe we have to fight with every strength that we have to do so.
All we can do is just try our best to focus on our God, so that we could pass through the problems with faith. In faith, we believe, He'll guide us all the way. So, don't listen to the devil or to yourself, pray a lot and the heavenly peace from God will be in our heart...
