Topic: Spiritual Anger
We've all felt angry in our lives. Whether it's about something stupid or something serious, we've felt angry.
Anger is a good outlet for emotion, anger was one of the many emotions created by God, but sadly it is one of the emotions that we constantly missus and exploit.
Anger was meant only for things that were truly worth being angry about. It wasn't meant for, oh my gosh you missed your fav TV show so you are raving mad, that's just sad.
God has been angry...but only when there were things to really be angry about. When his people worshiped other God's he became angry. Jesus was angry when he saw that the people were misusing his father's temple.
Anger is meant to be used in the proper place. We are all guilty of being angry about stupid stuff and worthless things. Sometimes it's pathetic to see what people become angry at.
As christians we should be better than that...even if you're not a christian we should be better than useless anger. Useless anger can only lead to useless pain and .
We need to take the lead from God and Jesus (as always) and learn to control our anger and use it in the correct place and time.
It's weird to say that anger can be healthy but it can. If you keep the anger you have inside it can only bring about hurting or a worse outburst of anger later. Believe me you don't want that.
God gave us these feelings and emotions for a reason and it is up to us to use them properly....and if we need help with that then we need to go to God and ask for his help. He'll be there for you believe me.
That's my religious thought for the day... tell me what ya think.
