God brings people into our lives that are just plain ornery and cantankerous.
We may not be the reason at all for these emotional outbursts, but yet we are the target at that moment. The skill is to defuse the situation, not become effected by the emotions swirling around at us, and accomplish the task at hand…sometimes easier said than done. But with wisdom from above, we can. The Lord can give you compassion to look beyond the person to the misery within and genuinely be that Peacemaker in their lives.
