I sometimes wonder why God does not just take away the emotion of anger from those who want to live holy lives. Being someone who has a certain temper, there were certainly times I wished I could just have the calmness and the serenity of saints who always seem to be gentle and patient to all. I’ve realized however, that anger still has its usefulness in this life. It is anger that tells us something is wrong. It is anger that signifies how atrocious evil really is. Without anger, we may just as easily tolerate monstrous deeds done before our eyes. Anger is not what’s wrong. It is holding on to anger when it is no longer needed. It is allowing anger to control us, using it as an excuse to do things we’d only regret later on.
