In relationship to being angry with others, posted some Scriptures at http://www.christianforums.com/t7832560/ that will be helpful.

Regarding personal anger issues, we need "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." Gal 5:22-23. OR from the AMP " But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness,23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [[f]that can bring a charge]."

So when conflicts come up, we can have the fruit of The Spirit. Notice for believers, it's Yahweh's Spirit. What I've learned and learning is the quicker I do this the better. Say someone cuts me off in traffic, previously I would be e-x-t-r-e-m-e-l-y angry in a second and stay that way. Now I asks Yahweh to help me have the fruit of His Spirit and start naming them. Am I this way 100% of the time? Nope. But He's certainly making a lot of progress.
