Concerning Anger
The LORD is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.
The LORD is good to all; he has
compassion on all he has made.
Psalm 145:8,9 NIV

For his anger endureth but a moment;
in his favour is life: weeping may endure
for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
Psalm 30:4,5 KJV

But You are a God of forgiveness,
Gracious and compassionate,
Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness;
And You did not forsake them
Nehemiah 9:17 NASB

Know this, my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger, for the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God.
James 1:19,20 RSV

Longing for a Better Country
These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.
If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.
Hebrews 11:13-16 ESV
