Anger grows up, too.
My daughters were born 17 months apart. They were toddlers when I felt intense anger and impatience overcoming my emotions toward them. I feared I would harm them and immediately picked up the phone and called my mother. She gave me perspective, understanding, and offered encouragement to commit the matter in prayer to God. When we hung up, I asked the Living God to remove the intense anger from my emotions toward my children. God did. I didn't realize He had answered my prayer until about two weeks later, when it dawned on me that I had not felt that dangerous anger come over me again. I praised God then, and I thank Him now for answering my prayer as a young mother.
