Thoughts for the Day

Yesterday we looked at the importance of not denying angry feelings. The next step in controlling anger is to control your thoughts. Don't let the anger take over and control your response!

Controlling your thoughts will enable you to control and determine what to say or do. Alert yourself and others to the fact that you are displeased, angry, or upset, but don't take any actions on your immediate feelings.

Be truthful with yourself and others. You might respond by saying, "What you said to me upset me; however, I need to think through my response to you. Maybe we need to talk about this after I clear my thoughts."


Consider This . . .



Be aware of the situation that angered you, but defer specific action until you think about your feelings and how to respond. Timing your response is important. Prayer will help you clarify the issue and how you are to deal with it.
