The Crisis of Anger

One cannot look at TV, spend time at an entertainment park, or even picnicking at a local park without noticing people who are angry. Angry people are everywhere. We have road rage that ends up in someone dying every day in America. Disgruntled employees, returning to work with firearms, are taking their anger out on co-workers or management.

Now, when a person is fired business, the company has to hire armed security for a few days in order to protect all who are presently working for the firm. Hollywood makes fun of angry people. It is cool to be angry according to Hollywood movies, but most businesses today have anger management classes for employees that focus on how to cope with stress and signs of ‘tipping-points’ so not too push customers to become angry.

Everyday all of us are approached by individuals that are angry—people who are at the point of exploding into a fit of rage. Remember OJ Simpson, San Bernardino public relations services, or any of countless weekly news updates that tell us of people who are angry and have lived out their rage and hatred on innocent people.

We get angry if we are not allowed to get our way. We can get angry over a cup of Starbucks coffee that is not made right. We have no patience—we cannot not wait for anything—we get mad if we do not get what we want when we want it. We are spoiled, self-centered and self-absorbing individuals.

We have invented so many things to make life easier yet to us, it is not easy enough. We have information at our fingertips yet we struggle for more and more at faster rates. There is not one nation that does not have an anger problem with its population. It is everywhere, in every culture and every life-style.

It is only going to get worse. The Bible says, The Revelation, “The nations were angry.” There is no turning back. Our future is determined—the world is coming to an end and there is nothing you can do about it. Darkness will eventually become so great it will destroy what we now know. Satan, the creator of lies and ruler of darkness, will have his day before Christ returns.

Want freedom? Give up your selfish ways. Start living for truth, goodness and Christ. Anger will only destroy what little love you have. Being mad will only hinder good from working. There is coming a day when God will not hear your prayers or come to your rescue. Then the Bible says you will become angry; then all you can do is grind your teeth or cry uncontrollably because of your situation—your anger will no longer be appeased and God’s judgment will follow.
