🎺 Anger beside Isaiah 57:17
When anger is loud, Isaiah 57:17 is a sentence you can borrow. “I was angry because of the iniquity of his covetousness, and struck him; I hid myself and was angry; and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.
