Of Wrath and Great Understanding

There is a point beyond which wrath becomes futile. Certainly be ye angry, but don’t let the sun go down on your wrath. To extend it for a day is not wise. The body wears. The mind becomes sogged. Let us now be still. Let God speak. 

Unless we don’t believe him, and in that case we are on our own. The devil is laughing. The devil is busy. Let us be wise. Let us be children of light and not darkness.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. Psa 37:8  

He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly. Pro 14:29 

He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. Pro 16:32  

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil. Eph 4:26-27  

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Eph 4:31-32
