Anger Continued

Craig Harrison - Coffee With Jesus

Today, as I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I continue my reflection on ANGER.  Anger is a real emotion, and we should not deny it.  Rather, we have to be very careful and observe it.  I have read some great quotes about anger.  One said, “Anger doesn’t solve anything, it builds nothing, but it can destroy everything.”  Another one says, “Speak when you are angry, and you’ll make the best speech you’ll never forget!”

Even Jesus got angry.  You remember the story of Jesus in the temple; He turned over the tables.  We cannot ignore anger, but we certainly need to be careful when we allow it to control us.  Aristotle said, “Anyone can become angry-that is easy, but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way–that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.“

When we take our ANGER to prayer, God can help us soften the blow, help us to regroup, and breathe his grace into the moment.  Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.”  Today, lift up your ANGER and learn to calm yourself, give space and time to whoever or whatever angers you, and allow GOD in!  Don’t waste another minute! 

Have a blessed day.

Buon Giorno
This passage I’m printing, framing & hanging in my bedroom. This will definitely help in softening my heart, allowing me to release my anger to our Lord.

This paragraph is my favorite:
