don't stay angry


Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.
- Ephesians 4:31

I will be the first to admit that I sometimes have anger issues.
I try really hard to not let things get to me, and honestly I am getting better.
This is a really good reminder though, because we as humans have a tendency to hold on to the stuff that we should not hold.
Mark Twain once said that Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.
WOW.
Think about it – that person that you are angry with probably doesn’t know (or care) that you are angry.
Is it worth the stress, putting all that energy into anger?
I think not.
I will pray that God helps me to get rid of this burden I carry, because it sure isn’t worth the gray hair!
Have a blessed day!
