ANGER A STING. Anger is implanted in us as a sort of sting, to make us gnash our teeth against him, not to set us in array against each other. We have arms given us, not to make war among ourselves, but that we may employ our whole armour against our spiritual adversary. Art thou prone to anger? Be so against thine own sins: chastise thy soul, s.courge thy conscience, be a severe judge, and merciless in thy sentence against thine own sins. This is the way to turn anger to profit. It -was for this that God implanted wrath within us.—St Chrysostom.
