Ephesians 4:26 “Be angry and do not sin”: do not let the sun
go down upon your wrath, 27 nor give place to the devil.
When the anger “alarm system” goes off, the arousal of “fight
or flight” is our inborn carnal response. It takes strength and practice to
transcend that carnal response. This is not always easy and is often painful.
Hebrews
12:11 Now no chasteninga seems to be joyful
for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable
fruit of righteousness to those who are trained by it.

What unhealthy habits
need to be crucified?
How do you go about
crucifying those unhealthy habits?
How does your
relationship with God factor into this?
Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your
mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to
the hearers.
What practices can you
implement to build strength of healthy habits that transcend “fight or flight”?
How does your
relationship with God factor into this?
What are your thoughts
on the phrase “emotional resilience”?
What are your thoughts
on assertiveness?
Healthy discipline is the strength building effort that
presses through every pain to gain what you need especially when you don’t feel
like it!
