Morning Prayer
Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
Inspiration
As Christians, we seek to be an example to nonbelievers or our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Our attitude is a factor that makes a big impression on those who cross our paths each day. When faced with confrontation, our self-control says a lot about the love of God; therefore, we must be cautious not to act or speak out of bitterness. Instead, we will turn to the Holy Spirit and ask for the wisdom to handle conflict. We will remain patient in frustrating moments, just as God has been patient with our wandering hearts since the beginning of time.
Prayer
Dear Father, we want to be examples of Your mercy in all situations. Please grant us peace as we calm our emotions in conflicting situations. In Jesus' name, Amen.
