Why am I so angry all the time for no reason?

By Ricardo Zaal, Founder and Lead Pastor ·

Why am I so angry all the time for no reason? - Fountain of Grace International

Yelling at the steering wheel again while you're stuck on the R513? Or maybe it was sharp words at breakfast. That simmering anger can flare up and surprise you. It's not really about the traffic or burnt toast, is it? There's more underneath. God invites you to pause in those heated moments.

"Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth."

- Psalm 46:10 (KJV)

Next time you feel the rise of anger today, take a deep breath and pause. Remind yourself to be still and remember that God is present. He's bigger than what's triggering your anger. Give yourself permission to not respond right away.

What's one thing you can do to seek peace instead of anger today?

God, sometimes I don't know why I'm so angry. Help me to find stillness in You. Let me feel Your peace and strength in those moments. Amen.
