Mishlei Musings
The Appetite of the Wise
Tags: character, controlling desires, Mishlei Musings
In the last episode of Mishlei Musings we learned the value of speaking in love. We saw that it is often difficult to control the tone of our voices in times of emotion. In addition to speaking in love, controlling our appetites and desires is also essential to our spiritual growth in life. Those appetites as well as our personal character traits are God-given and His desire is for us to channel them towards that which is good rather than using them for negative purposes.
