Meditation reading for Friday November 24, 2023
Hesitation is the best cure for anger…the first blows of anger are heavy, but as time passes, emotions will soften.
Everybody knows that expressing anger dissipates it, right? Not always. Just the opposite can be true—anger feeds on itself. We’ve seen that for ourselves, when we’ve vented our anger and actually grown more angry, not less.
We can handle our anger sensibly. If someone’s words, actions, or attitudes have offended us, we help both ourselves and the other person by making peace. God is all-forgiving; it is our challenge to be forgiving, too.
Today, instead of getting angry, I will pray that I’ll make peace and forgive.
