Tame Your Temper
Good sense makes a man slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense.—Proverbs 19:11 (RSV)
Charles Spurgeon said, “Do not say, ‘I cannot help having a bad temper.’ Friend, you must help it. Pray to God to help you overcome it at once, for either you must kill it, or it will kill you. You cannot carry a bad temper into heaven.” Slow down your anger and rise above provocation. Build up resistance to anger by letting this verse guide your thinking.
Dear Lord, help me resolve differences with love and compassion and strive for solutions that bring peace and harmony.
