4 Tips When Someone Slanders You
1. Your friends will always love you; your enemies will not, and you'll know your friends and enemies when bad things happen to you.
2. Do not take a poll of ignorant people. Trying to persuade of your perspective is typically not a good idea.
3. Peter said, "Finally: When [Christ] was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly (1 Peter 2:23).
4. The good Lord knows, understands, and loves you with an everlasting love. He's got your back, my friend. You may rest in Him.

Whenever a person chooses sinful anger, he is, in effect, giving the other person control over him. It’s counterintuitive. In his anger, he is like a marionette, a puppet on a string.
Anger toward someone is the total submission of their thoughts, attitudes, emotions, and behaviors to the other person. It is not self-control, as governed by the Spirit of God, but someone out of control or under the control of another spirit. https://lifeovercoffee.com/podcast/ep-110-help-for-the-angry-person/
