"Speak not evil one of another, brethren"

How apt that today I am reading James in the new testament. Especially after the weekend I've had. I let my anger get away from me sometimes and I don't always realize how letting my emotions go out of control, whatever my supposed grievance is, can be a further catalyst to more evil. James is speaking to me today and making me shameful of the anger that I expressed over the weekend. The lord knows my heart and knows how to tell me when I've been wrong. I will try to do better lord, I most certainly will.

"Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?"

I'm very sorry for what I have said.
