Prayer against Anger Heavenly Father, I come
before You with a heavy heart, burdened by anger
that I cannot seem to shake. Lord, You are slow
to anger and abounding in steadfast love. Help
me to be more like You. Calm the storm within
me. When my heart is troubled and my spirit rises
in frustration, grant me Your peace. Teach me
to pause before I speak. to reflect before I
act and to forgive as you have forgiven me. Remove
bitterness, wrath and rage from my soul and replace
them with patience, understanding and love. Give
me wisdom to handle conflict with grace and the
strength to overcome temptation. May your Holy
Spirit guide my thoughts and words and may your
peace rule in my heart always. Transform my anger
into compassion. and use even this struggle to
make me more like Christ. In Jesus' name, I pray.
Amen.
