Slow to anger


Name one thing about your life you would like to improve this year.

In my psychology class we talked about a quote by President Hinckley, “ I plead with you to control your tempers, to put a smile upon your faces, which will erase anger; speak out with words of love and peace, appreciation, and respect. If you will do this, your lives will be without regret. Your marriages and family relationships will be preserved. You will be much happier. You will do greater good. You will feel a sense of peace that will be wonderful.” This is something I would like to improve on over the course of this year. I want to be slow to anger. By giving people the benefit of the doubt and simply putting a smile on my face; I know I will be happier. In this same class my professor mentioned that when we become masters of controlling out anger, we will eventually not have anger anymore. What a great blessing this would be in all of our lives. I am going to work for it but I know that I will need heavenly help because I cannot do it alone.  Thank goodness for the power of prayer.
