Proverbs 19:11 -- On Letting Go

"The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression."
Proverbs 19:11


I like the idea here of deferring anger and passing over transgression. I think it is a message from God telling us that sometimes we just need to let it go. Maybe more than sometimes.

Today, let's try to let our anger go, and give people a pass when they do something wrong where it makes sense. That isn't always appropriate, but God can help us know what to stand up for and what to let go. Either way, let's work on being kind and forgiving wherever we can, embracing mercy, and trusting God to deal with necessary justice.
