Use A Gift To Appease Anger
Prepare a special gift for someone who is angry at you. When the person receives the gift, the anger will subside.
We find an example of this in the Torah when Jacob told his sons to take the best possible gift to the man in authority in Egypt. (see Genesis 43:11)
Furthermore, sometimes it is beneficial to allow some time to elapse. Even if at the outset of the person's anger nothing you could say would help, after time has passed he will be more open to discussing the matter.
Today, think of someone who has been angry at you. What gift can you give that person that perhaps will make him more open to let go of the anger?

He went into His Father ' s business 2. He lived at home until he was 33 3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was sure He was God But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian: 1. He talked with His hands 2. He had wine with His meals But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was aCalifornian: 2. He walked around barefoot all the time 3. He started a new religion But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was anAmerican Indian: 1. He was at peace with nature 3. He talked about the Great Spirit
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish: 1. He never got married.. 2. He was always telling stories. 3. He loved green pastures.
But the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman: 1. He fed a crowd at a moment ' s notice when there was virtually no food 2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn ' t get it 3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was still work to do Can I get an AMEN!! | |
