Remember that if you remain inwardly calm under all circumstances you can conquer anything or anyone. True calmness means that God is with you. If you become restless, you will irritate people and they will be angry with you. Then you will be miserable….
If someone is trying to get you in trouble, affirm continuously, “I am peace, I am calm,” and say it deeply. No matter how others may try to shake you, hold on to that peace. Your nerves will then be calm.
If anyone can make you angry, you have not yet attained perfect calmness; but maintaining calmness does not mean that you should let others make a doormat out of you. Sometimes it is necessary to make others understand that you mean business; but you are a child of God and you should never be angry. The more often you lose your temper, the longer you will remain in the delusory mortal consciousness; but if you remain inwardly calm, you are demonstrating the poise of a true child of God.
