Let’s face it… people get mad. Mad at drivers. Mad at telemarketers. Mad at computer customer service… aaaarrrggghhh!!!!
Getting upset is just a way of dealing with life’s junk. If something doesn’t upset you… it obviously doesn’t matter enough to you. But everyone has a line… and anger peers its ugly head!!
But Ephesians 4:26 gives us a deadline to deal with that anger. People think that anger is bad. No. It’s not… but what you do with that anger can end up being bad. Paul says for us to deal with it ‘that day’. “Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry.” Festering anger turns into bitterness and holding bitterness is like having an ulcer… no one can see why you are so much pain and it keeps getting worse until you deal with it.
If your upset, breathe, ask God for direction, and deal with it. Don’t let it stew.
At least that’s how I see it,
Craig
