Focus on Jesus
“Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”—Luke 10:41–42 (NIV)
When I heard their outcry and these charges, I was very angry.—Nehemiah 5:6 (NIV)
Anger can be a good thing. It can help guide you out of situations that need changing and lead you to make important decisions. So if you feel angry about something, instead of pushing it down deep, let it come to the surface and examine it. Use your feelings to uncover problems that need your attention.
Dear Lord, help me learn from my anger and then release it.
