James 4

Gnawing on a verse this week:
What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? - James 4:1

What causes quarrels and fights? God has a distinctly different perspective than I do. It is not my spouse, traffic, work, lack of sleep. My struggles are a result of me -ME! they come when I don't get what I want - my passions.

How can I get to the point where, in the heat of the moment, I realize that it is not the situation - but me having a calm, mature, quiet, controlled temper tantrum?
