Anger: Reflect Before You Respond A rebel shouts in anger; a wise man holds his temper in and cools it. (Proverbs 29:11 TLB) When you’re angry, don’t respond impulsively. Delay is a great tool in controlling anger. Im not saying delay indefinitely or even beyond a day; the Bible says dont go to sleep when youre angry. Im talking about delaying it for five minutes. When you start to get ticked off, take time out for a few minutes. Give yourself some time to reflect and think through the situation. If you dont stop and think, you are likely to do the wrong thing. You need to reflect before you respond.
