Is This You When You're Mad?
By Mark Flippo
Matthew 5:44 ESV
But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
This is Jurassic Park mad! In that movie the animals win. Sadly when you lose your temper God frowns upon your actions.
(Gen. 6:12) "And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was
corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth".
(Gen. 6:13)
"God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the
earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth."
Here God makes it very plain what He thinks of anger and all the things that come with it. When you become so angry that you lose all reasoning you have lost your mind. The very mind that God created for you to be able to think properly. I am ashamed to admit I have failed with keeping my emotions in check. I had become very angry and wanted bad things to come to an evil person. God reminded me it is not my place to bring judgement to anyone!
You can ask God to judge a situation but not the person themselves. God judges us all. I am glad because He will do a righteous judgement! We have all sinned and come short of the Glory of God. A sinner can not judge another sinner. Check yourself the next time you have a bad attitude and want justice on someone that did you wrong! Let God correct you and show you Love and how to help that horrible person that was so bad to you!
