Eph 4:32
32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.
1 John 4:7
7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
James 1:20
20 for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
In addition to learning and memorizing verses, the little ones (and big ones) have been taught what it means to provoke one another. And provoking is indeed a bad thing. In this context, I think of it as teasing, pushing things too far, not stopping when asked etc.
Merriam Webster
Provoke
1 a archaic : to arouse to a feeling or action b : to incite to anger
2 a : to call forth (as a feeling or action) : EVOKE
It was 7:15 am on Wednesday morning and Lauren (3) came running down the hall yelling "Mama"!!
"Yes, Lauren" I said.
"Mama, James is REVOKING me" Lauren said
I responded "well, that James is a bad boy, isn't he?"
She just cracks me up. She's 3 ???!!!
