Evening Prayer on Ecclesiastes 7:9

Dear God, As we reflect on anger and bitterness, we ask for your guidance and wisdom out of foolish outbursts. Help us to be patient and slow to anger, knowing that a calm spirit is better than a proud one. May we always seek to understand and love those around us, even in difficult situations. Give us the strength to forgive and the grace to extend kindness and compassion towards others. We pray for your peace to reign in our hearts and minds, as we trust in You to guide us through each day.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
