Afternoon Bible Study
Anger is a serious issue in society today, and Christians are not exempt from it. We need a great deal of self--control to keep from getting angry, and to stop ourselves from carrying anger with us.

The Bible gives us instructions on how to deal with anger in a healthy way. It begins with handling tense or volatile situations immediately so anger doesn't take root in our hearts.

To feel angry sometimes is natural and not necessarily wrong, but sinful anger has the potential to damage and destroy relationships. The second we feel anger welling up inside, we should bring it to the Lord in prayer. We can ask for wisdom about how to handle our feelings.


A wise person will seek godly advice and accept instruction from the Lord even when that means being corrected.

Before you speak, take a moment to ask God to examine your words. And if you react in a way that doesn't glorify Him, seek His guidance and forgiveness.
Afternoon Prayer
Lord, please keep me from nursing foolish anger in my heart. Give me your wisdom so I may reflect your character in my life. Let me be a witness of your goodness and grace to others. Please forgive me for the times when I have reacted in anger. Thank you for being patient with me as I become more like you. In Jesus's name, amen.

Yesterday Afternoon's Bible Verse
"For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith."
Romans 1:17 (KJV)

Yesterday Afternoon's Bible Study
"Driving in the dark on a road shrouded in fog is hazardous. When we can only see a minimal distance in front of us, it can be difficult to know where we're going. Simply squinting our eyes offers no solution to our dilemma.

That's when fog lights come in handy. These lights give an advantage by enabling a driver to see the edge of the road more clearly. Fog lights also provide two extra points of light that help oncoming drivers see through the fog.

Sometimes understanding our faith can be like squinting versus using fog lights.

This afternoon's verse in Romans says that God reveals Himself from faith to faith." That means God doesn't need to allow us to see far into the future. He will enable us to see the edge of the road to assure us that we are moving in the right direction.

Yesterday Afternoon's Prayer
God, sometimes it's difficult to see where you are leading me. Please give me more faith as I learn to trust in you. Draw me close to you when I can't see where I'm going and need your guidance more than ever. You have never failed me, and I know you never will. Let my faith encourage others to follow you. In Jesus's name, amen.
