My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,
James 1:19
One of the fruits of the spirit, that comes from aligning yourself with God, is peace. Sometimes your mind and body are so not used to peace that you have to, in a way train yourself. Thats also part of aligning yourself with God. Teach yourself to live in a Godly way.
This is just like when an addict gets clean. Getting clean is not just about not taking drugs. Getting clean for good involves training yourself in order to have the lifestyle of a non user. This can be the hardest thing to do but it’s worth it. We have control over our thoughts that have control over our actions. Look into cognitive behavioral therapy.
When I think of the fruit of peace, I think of inner peace. Inner peace goes hand in hand with being peaceful with others. Be helpful, loving, understanding,. Don’t be the start of drama or argument. That will only cause yourself and others a lack of peace and get you nowhere.
