“不轻易发怒的，大有聪明；性情暴躁的，大显愚妄。” – 箴 14:29
愤怒是一种强大的情绪，如果任其发展，可能会导致伤人的言行。作为基督的跟随者，我们要以尊重神、促进和解的方式来处理愤怒。
当愤怒在我们内心冒出苗头时，我们要停下来，花点时间反思。我们邀请圣灵帮助我们以温柔、节制和理解来回应。我们不要让愤怒控制我们，而是降服于神满有恩典的、转化的大能。
要培养温柔、忍耐、宽恕和节制的果子，就要设法了解我们愤怒的根源，用智慧和辨别力来解决它们。我们还要操练怜悯和同理心，多考虑他人的观点和感受。必要时，我们要谦卑地道歉并寻求和解。
神的话语教导我们要快快地听，慢慢地动怒（雅 1:19）。我们在祷告中获得力量，邀请神治愈我们的心，用祂的爱充满我们。我们培养和平与宽恕的心灵，就会成为神恩典的器皿，使我们的人际关系得以修复。
祷告
慈爱的天父，当我们内心冒出愤怒时，求你赐给我们温柔和节制。用智慧和明悟充满我们。引导我们去倾听、换位思考并寻求和解。愿我们的行动能彰显你的爱，带来医治和修复。奉耶稣的名，阿们。
以弗所书 4:25-32
25所以你们要弃绝谎言，各人与邻舍说实话，因为我们是互相为肢体。
26生气却不要犯罪，不可含怒到日落，
27也不可给魔鬼留地步。
28从前偷窃的，不要再偷，总要劳力，亲手做正经事，就可有余，分给那缺少的人。
29污秽的言语一句不可出口，只要随事说造就人的好话，叫听见的人得益处。
30不要叫神的圣灵担忧，你们原是受了他的印记，等候得赎的日子来到。
31一切苦毒、恼恨、愤怒、嚷闹、毁谤，并一切的恶毒，都当从你们中间除掉；
32并要以恩慈相待，存怜悯的心，彼此饶恕，正如神在基督里饶恕了你们一样。
Dealing With Anger
“Whoever is patient has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.” – Proverbs 14:29
Anger is a powerful emotion that, if left unchecked, can lead to hurtful words and actions. As followers of Christ, we are called to deal with anger in a way that honors God and promotes reconciliation.
When anger rises within us, we pause and take a moment to reflect. We invite the Holy Spirit to help us respond with gentleness, self-control, and understanding. Rather than allowing anger to control us, we yield to the transforming power of God’s grace.
Cultivating a spirit of gentleness, patience, forgiveness, and self-control involves seeking to understand the root causes of our anger and addressing them with wisdom and discernment. We practice empathy and compassion, considering the perspectives and feelings of others. And in humility we apologize where necessary and seek reconciliation.
God’s Word teaches us to be slow to anger and quick to listen (James 1:19). We find strength in prayer, inviting God to heal our hearts and fill us with his love. As we cultivate a spirit of peace and forgiveness, we become vessels of God’s grace, bringing restoration to our relationships.
Prayer
Loving Father, grant us gentleness and self-control when anger rises within us. Fill us with wisdom and understanding. Guide us to listen, empathize, and seek reconciliation. May your love, reflected in our actions, bring healing and restoration. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
