Prodigal: That just frosted me!
Me: We have to examine why and take it to the Lord.
This is from the book The Power of a Woman’s Words by Sharon Jaynes
Where does anger come from, anyway? It is a reaction to irritating people and circumstances, you might say. But I believe that the root cause of anger is self-centeredness. We live in a world that tells us “It’s all about me!” And when something doesn’t suit the center of our universe–me–then anger erupts. That’s difficult to admit, isn’t it? Here’s a little test. Each time you become angry over the next few days, ask yourself this question: Am I angry because I didn’t get what I wanted when I wanted it?
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. John 5:25 (KJV)
