Is it wrong to feel angry at God for all this?
Anger is a complex emotion that can be directed towards God, which can be a wrong emotion if it is directed against the wrong object, for the wrong cause, or if it leads to wrong behavior. It is essential to understand that Gods anger is not like ours, as it is infused with holy purpose and under the perfect control of limitless love. God is only angry where anger is called for, and it is a right and necessary reaction to objective moral evil.
When we feel angry at God, it is often a sign that we dont trust him, and it becomes an opportunity to know him better. Anger typically begins in a way that imitates God, making judgments about right and wrong, but it can quickly turn into a stance against him. We are angry because our rights and our glory, not Gods, have been violated. This anger can be a shortcut that is doomed to fail, and it is essential to turn to the true God, who shows compassion to those who are suffering.
Ultimately, anger is about God, and it indicates that we really dont trust him. Therefore, when we identify anger in our lives, we cant simply say, I am going to stop being angry. Such a resolution is admirable, but it is only the beginning of the story. We need to turn to the true God, who shows compassion to those who are suffering, and trust him. This is the only way to have a relationship with someone we think is angry with us, and it is the only way to overcome our anger and bitterness. By trusting God and understanding his forgiving grace, we can overcome our anger and live a life that reflects Christian values and teachings.
