A Collect to be Slow to Anger

Patient Father, who knows our weaknesses, teach us to be slow to anger, that we might not add yet more sin to the world, but would fulfill the righteousness that you desire for your children, through Christ our savior, who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit in perfect unity, now and forever. Amen.

‘You must understand this, my beloved brothers and sisters: let everyone be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger, for human anger does not produce God’s righteousness.’ – James 1:19-20
