Your Question:
How can I deal with the anger and resentment?
Answer:
Dealing with anger and resentment can be a challenging task, but it's a crucial step in healing and growing as a person. The first step is to acknowledge and recognize the anger within us. It's not always easy to see, as it can be masked by other emotions or behaviors. We may think we're not angry, but our actions and words can reveal a different story. It's essential to be honest with ourselves and admit when we're feeling angry or resentful. As I reflect on my own experiences, I've come to realize that anger often stems from a deeper issue - a lack of trust in God. When we're angry, it's often because we feel like God isn't taking care of us or that He's not just. This is where prayer and scripture come in. By meditating on the Lord's Prayer and other scriptures, we can begin to see our anger for what it is - a cry for justice and a desire for God's intervention. It's not about being angry at others, but about our own relationship with God. To deal with anger and resentment, we need to take it to God and ask for His help. We need to pray for guidance and wisdom, and ask God to search our hearts and reveal any areas of anger or resentment. We also need to learn to control our outbursts and not let anger simmer and boil over. As a pastor, I've seen how anger can destroy relationships and families. But with God's help, we can overcome anger and resentment and live a life of peace, love, and forgiveness.
