Restraint
O God,
Help us to show appropriate restraint in the words we speak and in the actions we take in response to the situations we face, particularly those situations that threaten us and thus cause us to want to respond out of pride, anger, or fear.
At the same time, help us to show no restraint in the ways in which we speak and act in the pursuit and practice of love, grace, mercy, forgiveness, fairness, and understanding.
Amen.
