Dear friends, Anger can be like a deadly poison, infecting our thoughts and relationships if left. Though we may feel justified in our rage, the Bible warns us of the dangers of clinging to bitterness and unrestrained emotion. When anger leads us to harsh words and rash actions, it almost always results in regret.
This is why God’s Word advises us not to let the sun go down on our anger. Come nightfall, our defensive pride has a way of melting into sadness over broken unity. Darkness reveals what the light of day obscures – that we suffer when we are at odds with others. Sleep evades us, and restlessness follows, all because we did not make peace before night’s curtain fell.
Rather than nurse our anger through the bitter watches of the night, God knows we will sleep better if we work through issues before sunset. This may require humility and sacrifice, but these qualities please the Lord. He wants us to maintain the same grace at night that we display during daylight.
Dear friends now let’s see the Bible scriptures below that talk about “Do Not Go To Bed Angry”.
