Irritations Sharpen Character In Relationships

by Hazel Straub

Have you ever become so irritated with a certain person that you were obsessed on their flaws? The ways they acted caused you to react in frustration and their thorns hurt. Then God began to show you, the same things were operating in your life. Your intolerance stemmed from the same immaturity lurking in your own life. This person came to sharpen you, like a knife blade, so you could be honed for the Master’s use. Rather than complaining, rejoice! This person is the tool used to make you more mature.

In the same way that iron sharpens iron, a person sharpens the character of his friend. (Proverbs 27:17 VOICE)
