Wisdom and Humility

After the last few posts, we should remember that a remedy for unrighteous anger is wisdom and humility. Here is a prayer adapted from the Presbyterian Common Book of Worship of 1906:
O Father in heaven, grant to us that with a meek and lowly heart we may endure your fatherly corrections, and submit ourselves quietly to your wise discipline. Grant that we may bear patiently the troubles of this mortal life, neither rebelling against you, nor turning away from your instructions; so that in the end we may be made wise and humble, and obtain the blessing of those who, with patience and strength wait upon the Lord, for it is in his name we pray. Amen
