Attitudes/Answers with Olen Baker

Anger expressed is like a pressure valve releasing that pressure.  Expression is essential.  Turning to God in the process is also essential to keep from going down the wrong path.

Do you have a right to be angry?  Yeah, you do.  But anger acted out without God by your side is a disaster waiting to happen.  It's a little more than counting to 10.  Instead, take 10 seconds to check in with Him.

God has a different way of looking at life, than the way, we do.  Anger blocks that path to see how a problem can be solved.  Rely on God's eyes to help you see a little better.

Disappointment is connected to anger.  And why not?  You get angry when things don't go your way.  But anger can turn a bad situation into a disaster.

It's simple.  God does not act according to our aassessment of a situation, but he does what is best for everyone.  You might disagree.  But dig a little deeper and discover why He has the best option.  

The good news is that God has paved the way and prepared our lives for taking the best path.  When we get stuck, He is right beside us to move to a better place.  Lean on God when it's time to make that little, or BIG decision.
