The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
He will not always chide,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; Psalm 103
Anger, like other emotions, has it's rightful place. It is a great motivator, and many injustices have been addressed though the fuel it provides. But like fuel, it burns; it has to be handled carefully. In these verses we read how anger is balanced by love. Anger can be 'channelled', like electricity or nuclear energy. With the right motivation and wisdom, it can create a blessing, motivated and informed by our Creator. It is a gift to us, and freely given.
PRAYER: May the righteous anger within be anointed with love, and used to bless.
