"A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger quiets contention." "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power, love, and self-control."
We accomplish more when we address people and our issues with a calm Spirit.Lord, give us the fruit of self-control, so we will never let our emotions overpower our intelligence. Let not our anger turn us into a broken city without walls. Let our rage not blind us as we walk through this Valley of death, but let Your peace gives us eyes that see. Father, help us understand that anger is a portal the devil uses to enter our hearts. So, let the Holy Spirit fill our hearts and give You room to move. Lord, we want to live a righteous life to please You. So, fill us with the Holy Spirit to see all that's good and the path You have set for us. To walk by the Spirit, and we will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the wishes of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep us from doing the things we want to do. But if we are led by the Spirit, we quickly get angry because of our Spirits of self-control. In Jesus' name Amen
Amen!
