S.O.A.P. (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer) Notes from my quiet time:

My Observation

In trials and tests, it is necessary to keep the way of God in outward and inward behavior.

My Application
  1. Enduring trials will lead to a crown of life
  2. Yielding to temptation will lead to death physically
  3. In the midst of trials and tests be slow to speak, swift to ear, and slow to anger
This was a very relevant to this past weekend. It was like my husband was getting on my nerves so easily. I could not get why I was so irritated with him. Now I see! Do not yield to the temptation to react in anger or irritation it is only a trial. I also kept my cool when my 8-month old went berserk on Sunday. Everything in the world happened as I was trying to leave for church. I did not sweat, cry, cuss, or slam anything--just kept my focus on God.
