A Prayer for Overcoming Anger

I read this prayer today that I found on www.lords-prayer-words.com. I was looking for encouragement that I could send to someone I love.

I thought I'd share it here too in case anyone else needs to hear this...

'O Lord, I'm sorry that anger rises so often in my heart. I feel such pressure at work and home. Sometimes I can feel as though I'm balancing on a knife's edge, I'm about to fall. Sometimes I don't have the resources to meet each demand. Sometimes I resent colleagues, family and friends. My temper cracks and I fall into wrath. Sometimes I feel disappointed in myself, I feel so cross when I get things wrong or fail. I know you understand. You see all I am, the good and the bad. Your love can flood these angry moments. Help me to pray, to look to you, To take a step back and calm down. Help me to breathe out, to re-fuel, And to rest. Often a gentle hug, a kind word, or even a drink or snack is all I need to reset. Please step in when I feel anger surging again, And remind me of these things. I trust in you. Amen'

We all hiccup. We all say and do things we wish we hadn't. The key is to keep trying, keep growing, keep believing in yourself that you can overcome anything.

Simply put...Never Give Up.
NOT ever on yourself!! You are LOVED. You are CHOSEN. You are one of His prized creations.

Be encouraged today friends!!
