Ephesians 4:26- “In your anger, do not sin.”
Last week, a Groupon Headline caught my eye.
I read the advertisement for a “Rage Room” at a Family Rage Release Center. The Groupon listed a number of activities that promised to help participants get rid of their pent up anger. The accompanying picture showed a teenage boy bashing a television with a baseball bat.
Out-of-control anger is so prevalent in our world that the evening news is filled with stories of mass shootings, road rage, and so on.
The Bible is full of much safer and effective suggestions to help us alleviate our anger.
Here are just a few:
Proverbs 15:1- “A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.”
Proverbs 21:14a- “A gift given in secret soothes anger.”
Ecclesiastes 10:4b- “Calmness can lay great offenses to rest.”
