You can either let anger take control of you and allow it to be your master, or you can deal with your anger and grow in strength and healing. To effectively deal with your anger, first, be aware of its source. What triggers those feelings? You also need to know how far you can let your anger go before it has gone too far. By understanding the limits of your anger, you will be able to release it in a way that is healthy for you and for those around you. "Anger is legitimate. There's nothing wrong with anger in and of itself. But you can't turn your anger loose and just let it fall where it may," says Pastor Buck Buchanan. The book of Proverbs offers sound advice: "A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control" (29:11). Lord God, give me the wisdom to know when to hold my anger in check. Amen. Through a Season of Grief The daily email messages you are receiving are also available in a book format.
