Slooooooow to Anger

I rarely blow a fuse but when I do, it feels like world war 3. It's not something that I am very proud of but I'm working on it. I know that I have to work on my emotions especially handling anger. When I'm up in arms with something or someone, I tend to blurt out words that I regret. And those words really hurt A LOT.

I realize that my anger stems from the sin of pride. Because if I feel that someone has trampled on my right, pride comes in. I get angry because I feel that my expectations are not being met but I have to understand that my sense of entitlement is just a crooked manifestation of my pride. I just have to submit everything to Him and not be a captive of anger. So the next time anger creeps up in my heart, I'll just learn to breathe and submit everything to Him.
