Anger

I got shot down by someone yesterday saying that I was bias to certain people in my committee, and that it's not a good characteristic of a leader. Upon hearing that, naturally some -ahem- unkind words flew out of my mouth.

3 seconds later, I just felt guilty and went back to my room and 'emo'.

In this situation, what do you think Jesus will do?

Psalm 103:8,9 says "The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever."

And this is something we can learn from Him. When we are being criticized, just remember we are normal human beings. It's not totally wrong to be angry, but to hold a grudge and say hurtful words- is just a sign of being quick-tempered and it's just foolish.

Anyway, I'm off to forgive and forget.
