The Final Act of LoveSample

Anger : a strong feeling of displeasure and usually of antagonism In the past month after the loss of my friend I have asked the following questions: “Why did this happen?”, “How could this happen?”, “Why would this happen right now?” and I even asked God “How could you do this?”. I was rushed with what I call hot emotions. I’ve been mad, angry, upset and furious. If I'm honest with you these are emotions that I was feeling towards God. You may have gasped when you just read that last sentence, but I know this an unspoken truth of myself and many others. I felt as Martha had when she went to meet Jesus and she told him had he been there that Lazarus would not have died. We may find ourselves trying to find a to place the blame to try to make some sort of sense of what has happened. The emotions produced in this phase often lead to feelings of guilt because some of the thoughts or even words that may have been spoken. You see, anger is a secondary emotion, and it is a protector. Anger often acts as guardian to or hurt and fear.  God can see beyond that barrier. He is not taken back by our declaration or questions. In fact, He wants you to bring it all to Him. He is big enough to hold every bit of pain that flows from the reservoirs of our hearts. You can trust Him.
