2. The breaking out of passion and rash anger.

We have not had the rule which we ought to have had over our own spirits; which have therefore been as a city that is broken down, and has no walls. Prov 25:28.

We have been soon angry, and anger hath rested in our bosoms. And when our spirits have been provoked, we have spoken unadvisedly with our lips; and have been guilty of that clamour and bitterness, which should have been put far from us. Prov 14:17. Eccl 7:9. Ps 106:33. Eph 4:31.

‹ We must confess and bewail the workings of pride in us. · Our covetousness and love of the world. ›

Pray now: a guided prayer in six parts, with the next heads each day.
