I think a better question for the Lord than "why" is how. How do you want me/us to proceed? How can I give you back the control that my mind and emotions want to take charge of? My loved ones are in Your hands, help me to continue to keep them there and help me not to overreact. I'm feeling/ experiencing tremendous poverty of spirit and probably didn't realize the degree at which I struggle with control until now.
It's more apparent with a type A personality but, for the rest of us that don't fit into those boots, that way of speaking, I find that we keep things quiet on the inside until it bubbles up. I'd prefer personally speaking of course, not to give further testimony on how not to tame the tongue according to James chapter three. Love is greater than temporary frustration, it's greater when I sit down longer and pray about it with my wife.
Love is an action word and I'm praying for my heart to accompany my actions.
