DON'T BE ANGRY

Job 5:2 NKJV "For wrath kills a foolish man, And envy slays a simple one."

According to reports, "Almost a third of people polled (32%) say they have a close friend or family member who has trouble controlling their anger. More than one in ten (12%) say that they have trouble controlling their own anger. More than one in four people (28%) say that they worry about how angry they sometimes feel. One in five of people (20%) say that they have ended a relationship or friendship with someone because of how they behaved when they were angry. 64% either strongly agree or agree that people in general are getting angrier."

Chances are that you are angry right now; maybe your anger has reduced, but you're upset and probably thinking of how best to deal with whoever got you angry. Please don't be angry!

You may want to argue that anger is an emotion like love; yes, but note that it is called a negative emotion while love is a positive emotion. Anger kills! Control it! People might fear you because of your anger, but you should be worried because you're hurting yourself. Ephesians 4:26-27 says “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil."
