Question: "What does the Bible say about controlling your temper?"
Answer: Many people struggle with a quick or fiery temper. Although society often encourages people to express themselves and not hold back, God’s Word teaches that giving in to one’s temper is a sin.
The Bible has a lot to say about the importance of controlling one’s temper. It calls a person who easily loses his temper a “fool” (Proverbs 29:11; Ecclesiastes 7:9) and describes someone who cannot control himself as a “city whose walls are broken down” (Proverbs 25:28). A person with a hot temper is often at odds with those around him, becoming easily offended and lashing out in anger for even the smallest slight (Proverbs 15:18a). As children of God, we are called to love others (John 13:35; Ephesians 4:2, 31-32) and to be at peace (James 1:19; Proverbs 19:11; James 3:17-18). “Love covers a multitude of sins” (1 Peter 4:8). A person who maintains a calm, even temper is quicker to forgive and better able to live peaceably with others (Proverbs 15:1, 8b; 12:16; 19:11).
With the Holy Spirit in our lives, we will show the fruit of His work inside us. Some of the fruits of the Spirit are peace, patience, and self-control (Galatians 5:22–23)—these are essential to controlling the tendency to lose our temper. In fact, the Greek word translated “patience” (“longsuffering” in the KJV) carries the idea of “long-burning,” as in having a long fuse. As we grow in Christ, we should continue to deal appropriately with anger (no short fuses!) and react with love and patience (Colossians 3:8).
We may often feel justified in losing our temper, particularly when someone has hurt or offended us. But we are instructed to forgive (Matthew 5:44; 6:12; 18:21–22), not yield to anger or seek vengeance. It is ultimately God’s prerogative to punish evildoers (Deuteronomy 32:35; Romans 12:19). For an example of this forgiveness, we need only look to Jesus. When He was hanging on the cross, crucified for sins He did not commit, He did not release His wrath on the perpetrators. Instead, He asked God the Father to forgive them (Luke 23:34).
It’s important to note that anger is a valid emotion and is not always sinful. God allows for “righteous anger,” which is anger with the proper focus, the proper motivation, the proper control, the proper duration, and the proper result. Our problem is that our temper is often motivated by selfishness and directed toward other people instead of toward sin. That’s why God tells us to “let all bitterness and indignation and wrath (passion, rage, bad temper) and resentment (anger, animosity) . . . be banished from you” (Ephesians 4:31, AMP). With God’s help, we can keep our temper in check.

It’s finally here. Your daughter is getting married. You’ve watched her grow from a tiny tot into the enchanting woman before you.
There she waits, in her pristine white princess dress, covered in Chantilly lace. She’s smiling but you can tell that she is happy from her eyes.
You want the very best for your daughter, and you believe in the power of a solid marriage. All of the sudden, it hits you.
You know the perfect wedding gift for your daughter and son-in-law to be.
In the following story, posted on Reddit, a wise mother gives her daughter an invaluable gift.
If a couple is so focused on current troubles, it’s hard to remember all the good times from the past, and the reason they fell in love and wed in the first place.
But thanks to one wise mother, this husband and wife are going to make it after-all.
Never forget the reasons why you fell in love.

You know the perfect wedding gift for your daughter and son-in-law to be.
In the following story, posted on Reddit, a wise mother gives her daughter an invaluable gift.
At the end of the wedding party, her mother gave her a newly opened bank savings passbook, with $1,000 deposited in it.Marriages aren’t always easy. When two people are so close, and so intertwined, they can lose touch with reality.
She told her, “My dear daughter, take this passbook. Keep it as a record of your married life. Whenever something happy and memorable happens in your new life, put some money in. Write down what it’s about next to the amount. The more memorable the event is, the more money you can put in. I’ve done the first one for you today. Do the others with your husband. When you look back after years, you will know how much happiness you’ve both shared.”
She shared this with her husband after getting home. Both of them thought it was a great idea and couldn’t wait to make the next deposit! This is what the passbook looked like after a while:
— February 7 – $100: His first birthday celebration after marriage
— March 1 – $300: She gets a salary raise
— March 20 – $200: Vacation to Bali
— April 15 – $2,000: She’s pregnant!
— June 1 – $1,000: He gets the big promotion
And so on …
However, as the years went by, they began fighting and arguing over trivial things. They didn’t talk much. They regretted marrying the nastiest person in the world. There was no more love there.
One day the wife talked to her Mother. “Mom, we can’t stand it anymore. We have decided to divorce. I don’t understand how I could have married this guy!”
Her mother replied, “Do whatever you need to do, if you really can’t stand it. But before that, there’s one thing you should take care of. Remember the savings passbook I gave you on your wedding day? Take out all the money and spend it first. You shouldn’t keep any record of such a poor marriage.”
The wife agreed with her mother. So she went to the bank, and was waiting in the line to cancel the account. While she was waiting, she took a look at the passbook record. She looked, and looked, and looked. Then the memory of all the previous joyful moments came back to her. Her eyes were filled with tears. She left and went home.
When she got home, she handed the passbook to her husband and asked him to spend the money before getting divorced.
So the next day, he went to the bank, and the same thing happened to him. Overwhelmed by the list of life events before his eyes, the husband found all the memories from their life together flooding back and bringing tears to his eyes.
He came home and gave the passbook back to her. Inside was a new deposit of $5,000. And a line next to the record: “This is the day I realized how much I’ve loved you throughout all these years. How much happiness you’ve brought me.”
They hugged and cried. The passbook returned to its rightful place inside the safe.
If a couple is so focused on current troubles, it’s hard to remember all the good times from the past, and the reason they fell in love and wed in the first place.
But thanks to one wise mother, this husband and wife are going to make it after-all.
Never forget the reasons why you fell in love.
Pencil: I'm sorry
Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.
Pencil: I'm sorry cos you get hurt bcos of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time....
Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one, I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.
I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational. Parents are like the eraser whereas their children are the pencil. They're always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way... they get hurt, and become smaller (older, and eventually pass on).
Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying, or sad.
"All my life, I've been the pencil.. And it pains me to see the eraser that is my parents getting smaller and smaller each day. For I know that one day, all that I'm left with would be eraser shavings and memories of what I used to have..."
