Peace

Forgiving Brings Peace

"Do not let the sun go down on your wrath."
Ephesians 4:26

Reflection

Anger kept from one day to the next goes sour. Settling it before bed is practical advice from God for a light heart.

Prayer

God, help me not fall asleep angry today. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What happens to anger kept overnight?
  2. Why settle things before bed?
  3. Is there anything to make right before tonight?

5-minute activity

At bedtime, have a quick "sunset check": each person asks if anyone is upset with them, and they make it right before sleep. Make it a nightly habit this week. Read Ephesians 4:26-27.
