Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires.
- James 1:19-20

Lord Jesus, though there is a time and place for righteous anger, teach me to recognize the difference between righteous anger and anger arising from my human nature. Help me check my anger, and be slow to speak and slow to act when it is stoked. Amen.
