Spiritual Food for Thought for the Weekend

Anger Issue Anyone? 

Proverbs 29:11 (NIV)

“A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control.”

I have an anger issue.  I saw it growing up. My dad was generally a very calm person but when he blew up, he went a little crazy.  I have a similar issue; I have no excuse for it.  I know better but I find myself acting like the fool that Proverbs talks about.  Of course, my family gets this foolishness the most.  Pray for me.  I believe it has gotten better but probably the better person to ask is my wife.  Honestly, I don’t know if she would agree.  Pray for me. 

Prayer: Lord, forgive me.  Lord, give me grace.  I want to be a man who keeps himself under control for Your glory.  Amen. 

Bible Reading for Today: Joshua 18-19
