Processing anger? Scriptures tell us, “In your anger do not sin. Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry” (Ephesians 4:26). When we dwell on what makes us angry, we will seethe and boil as time passes. Yet we ought to chose to process our anger and with self-discipline replace emotion.
Think about it. The habit of evaluating bad situations by pulling them apart and putting them back together again makes sense. Writing things down and processing the anger helps. Do it while the situation is fresh and with the tacit input of a friend.
God’s Word tells us: “In your anger do not sin. Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry” (Ephesians 4:26).
Keep your feelings to yourself until you’ve thoroughly analyzed the facts. Don’t resort to threats or accusations; simply choose to look for a solution. Strive to “own” your feelings as precious to you and others. Base that ownership on the whole picture, not just a convenient part of it. Good counsel when you are dealing with people’s lives. Yours and the one who hurt you.
. “I pray today in Jesus name that when we are hurt and feelings are aroused, we turn to God and ask Him to calm us and direct us into a behavior of sorting and analyzing the fault to limit the hurt. Amen!”
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34) www.thispassingday.com
