Don’t get mad; get going.
Don’t stay mad: reconcile.
Don’t just stand there:
Do something! Or Say something.
Frustration that can lead to anger
sometimes develops from inability to act.
Pause in any of the above situations
and calmly think of an action
that might change the situation.
Don’t hesitate to admit any incapacities
and appeal to the Holy Spirit for resolutions.
Come, Holy Spirit,
Reader of hearts,
Reconciler of differences,
Bridge of distances,
touch my heart, move my mind
to view others as precious to you
and to view challenging situations
as potential for the good of Christ’s kingdom.
Amen.
