A life that is trying to live righteously and abide by God's Word cannot have lingering anger and be happy. It hardens our hearts and opens the door for satan. We cannot hold bitterness in our minds, souls, and hearts. It is a dangerous emotion that will continue to cause hurt and pain to ourselves and to the other person if we do not identify it, forgive and let go of it.
"Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." Ephesians 4:31, 32.
Ask yourself WHY am I angry? At WHOM am I angry? WHAT caused me to become angry?
If you can identify the source, please take the time today to forgive. Ask God to remove the bitterness and start living a life of grace, kindness, and peace.
Love in Christ,
Tera
