The need for self-control is clear in the Scriptures’ prescription for how to respond to those who frustrate or anger us. When cursed we are to pray for and bless “those who mistreat you” (Lk. 6:28). Commands like this not only seem wildly counter-intuitive, but unrealistic. How can we attempt to adopt such a challenging communication style? How much self-control will it take to not only overlook an insult, but also be gracious? How much personal transformation is needed to desire to be the kind of person who meets insult with blessing?
