My pastor had a really good word last Sunday in regards to the verse about not letting the sun go down on your anger/wrath. And a big way to get to the bottom of the anger, and to maybe help ourselves deal with it, is to ask ourselves why we’re so angry in the first place. What’s the core of it?
For me often times it’s a place of fear.
Very recently I’ve been getting a little bit back into the idea of dating. And I, as a young lady, have decided I am less likely to have children. I’m not 100% opposed but my first reaction is no. I told this to a gentleman I was getting to know, and he subsequently stopped communicating with me. Didn’t even tell me he wasn’t ok with that.
And that makes me very angry. I’m still angry. But I know where it comes from. Fear. Fear that no man will want me as a girlfriend let alone wife because of this. Fear of loneliness....Guilt of over my unwillingness...that I’m not doing my duty as a woman...
Yeah... so all I can say is, stop and ask yourself that. And ask God for help in that base reason.
