Proverbs 14:29 New International Version (NIV)
29 Whoever is patient has great understanding,
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.
Responding quickly to aggravation, threat, insult, or difficulty
suggests strength to many folks today. However, responding hastily out of anger
is foolish. This response seldom produces the desired long-term effect and
nearly always compounds the problems that need to be addressed. Patiently
dealing with frustrating and painful situations shows understanding and is
nearly always more fruitful in the long run.
Thought for today:
Do I have a healthy grip on my anger?
