"Getting Rid of Anger"

As long as anger dominates any of us, it is difficult to progress. Some of the masks that anger hides behind are gossip, slander, backstabbing, profanity, fault finding, resentment, quarrelsomeness, impatience, mockery and irritability. We are all guilty of these things, probably a little every day.

Anger is an old pattern that we need to break to make any progress. It has probably caused more grief than any of our other character defects. This program will yield little results when we are dominated by any form of anger. We shed anger by inventorying it, praying to be rid of it and practicing not to get angry. Have I removed all my masks of anger?

God help me today to practice the virtues of patience and love, for if I am loving I cannot be angry.
