What's your hot button? Even
the most mild mannered and patient people I
know have one. Your button might be pressed
by someone cutting in front of you in
traffic or at the grocery store. How about
uninvited advise or criticism? Or maybe it's
that child in the backseat. On most days we
can handle the occasional irritants that
place themselves in our way. On other days
it seems as though people are standing in
line waiting (and eager) to press our
button. How do we deal with those hot button
occasions? The answer is fairly simple and
logical, like getting your flu shot before
flu season and not waiting until you
experience the first symptoms. Fill your
life with the fruits of God's Spirit: Love,
joy, peace, patience, longsuffering,
gentleness, and self-control. When we are
filled with these qualities our hot button
won't be so easy to press.
