Pray without anger, quarreling, resentment, or doubt

“… that in every place men should pray without anger or quarreling or resentment or doubt [in their midst], lifting up holy hands.” 1 Timothy 2:8 AMPC

How do you keep anger, quarreling, resentment, and doubt out of your life, out of your thoughts, out of your prayers?  By not letting them in from the get go.  The moment any or all of those emotions begin to entice your mind, flood them out with prayer and thanksgiving – hand them over to Jesus.  Not only will He ease your mind, but He will turn those dark thoughts into thoughts of love, mercy, compassion, and joy.
