God with us

"Like a city whose walls have been broken down is a man/woman without self-control. (Proverbs 25:28) - 'If you cannot control your anger, you are as helpless as a city without walls, open to attack." These two renderings of this verse speak to the need to be responsible for ourselves, our ability to discipline our thoughts and feelings. it is opportunity to remember that God in Christ illustrated our way to treat each other. He also shows us in his personal behavior the exercise of self-control. On the streets of the world where violence erupts the voices of self-control speak to the presence of "God with us".
