"My inmost being will rejoice when your lips speak right things" Proverbs 23:16
AFTERNOON SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON-When it comes to practicing anger management, here are two important Bible principles:
(1) Don't blame people and things. Blaming is a way of evading responsibility while pointing your finger elsewhere.
"If only you'd arrive on time, I wouldn't have to nag you.
b>Words like that don't help, they just antagonize the other person, perpetuate your anger, and fail to get the... results you want. (2.) Don't use words as weapons or a form of control.

Instead keep your emotions in check and express them in a healthy way. Remember, your goal is to solve the problem and strengthen the relationship, not leave wounds that fester.
Is that easy to do? No-that's why you may need The Most High's help.
The Bible says that your words can crush the other person's spirit (Proverbs 18:14) break their heart (Proverbs: 15:4) and destroy the relationship (Pr. 18:21).

Solomon said that angry words 'go down into a man's inmost part" (Proverbs 26:22)
What you say can live in the memory of the another person's their whole life-all the way to the grave.

On the other hand, anger properly managed never needs to be regretted or repented of.
Learn to discern the difference between anger you feel and the words you speak.
Anger can reveal what needs to be changed in the relationship.
So ask the Most High to show you what needs changing-first in yourself then in the other person. (Source: The Word For Today)
