Comment Up
Pastor Mike Olive of the Common Ground Church reached out to Wes and Mark in a gesture of friendship and love as well as to be a compassionate listener. They were invited to come over to his coffee shop yesterday which was Peace Day. But they were both "no shows."
A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control. (Proverbs 29:11,
NIV)
James 1:19-20: "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and
slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the
righteous life that God desires."
(NIV)
I guess Pastor Mike's invited guests did not want to hear those messages.
