Verse of the day: God asked Jonah, is your anger reasonable?(Jonah 4. 9)

Whenever anger manifests itself, we must immediately assess the character of the anger by asking this question: “Is your anger reasonable?” Perhaps we can answer: “Yes. ” Too often anger is the flame that kindles a fool; but sometimes anger is Elijah’s fire from heaven. We do well when we are angry with sin because of the mistake made against our merciful and merciful God. No wonder we get angry when we direct our fury against remaining insane, having received so many divine instructions; or against others, when the only cause of anger is the damage they do. Whoever does not get angry with transgression participates in it. Sin is a loathsome and dreadful thing, and no born-again heart can patiently tolerate it. God Himself is angry with the wicked every day. The Word of God says: “You who love the Lord, hate evil? (Psalm 97. 10). Too often we have to worry that our anger is not right or even justified. If this is the case, we must answer:” No “.
