Anger
Describe vividly how you feel the emotion 'Anger'. Does it spread like wildfire in your body or does it start with the slow increase of your heartbeat. Does it urge you to create chaos or do you push your demon down back into its cage. I'd like to read all responses :)

Anger Equals Murder

The Sunday school Lesson of

when God asked Cain.

Why are you angry?

Anger equal murder.

The child rebelled.

"But teacher! I've been angry.

Even yesterday when dad

grounded me. But I didn't murder.

The teacher looked at the child.

Empathetic toward his feelings.

The teacher in a soft voice,

Murder starts in the heart.

Anger starts the moment you find

Something or someone unacceptable.

When you do not accept the situation

You give it control over you.

Watch your heart.

Your resentment becomes your fear.

The trial you face enrages the heart.

The trial you face tortures the soul.

The trial you face has given life to your fear.

The resentment has empowered you

To wipe out this person from your heart.

Anger is murder, even though

they still live.

Acceptance is the key to LOVE.
