In church we are going through a sermon series on the 'Sermon on the Mount' and in that sermon, Christ gives us standards to strive for once we have given our all to him. This week the focus is on anger (Matthew 5:21-26). And oh man do I need to deal with some anger and I do not mean in the form of punching something!
There are things in my life, more like people in my life that are bringing this anger thing out. The relationships with these people have been in the toliet (for lack of better words) for years but the past couple of months the toliet is starting to overflow. (moving on from the toliet comparison, you get the point)
I am angry at these people, so very angry and I just don't know how to get past it. Christ says to resolve our anger with the other, but I can't sometimes calm down to deal with it in my head much less with that person. I am struggling with this so very much right now, I tried a month or two ago to just leave it behind me but I realize now that I am not over it, am still very angry and am most likely going to have to deal with that person and my anger.
I am trying to look to Christ, I really am, and I need strength and the power from Christ to overcome this roadblock of anger and to do what I need to do to move with life.
