I pray that I keep my anger in check and turn it over. Dealing with anger Anger has its place, but addicted people tend to let anger run away with them. The old saying “Be angry, but sin not” is a tall order for us. Two sins of anger are revenge and resentment.

We feel like real people, we love others, and we enjoy the pleasure of true contact with them. I am grateful I can be a part of the process.
