I don't but I know thats the human nature. But i would like to know how to control your anger? This is what i've learnt! What Works For You? What have you found that gives you spiritual guidance and strength? Where do you go for your inspiration? Don't abandon Jesus. Truth and power are still to be found in the real GOD only. Anger hides and sneaks into your personality and into your life with great destructive force. Anger turns you against yourself and depletes your energy and health. So better dont do it. Religion that creates hostility between people and that intentionally sets people against other people is alien to God, the universe and objective rational thinking. Anger is really contagious. What's ur views and how do you control your anger?

No i dont. probably because im a positive thinker and i do not want to blame God for my distress. I was and will never get angry with God. I know that I have to face problems from time to time cause this is part of a human life. Nothin is perfect here. We always have to face some troubles sometimes. We are responsible to solve our problems. If we feel we did not make it then why should we blame it to God.

The last time i got mad with God was when my mother wouldn't buy me a pair of hair barettes. Hhmmm... talking to someone or writing it down helps me from doing something stupid. And also I find that my belief that God's answers are always wiser than my prayers and that delays do not mean denials help me a lot to keep my composure and not break out all mad shaking my fist at God.

I believe adversities or distresses are things that will be followed by prosperity and happiness, which God will give us. Those all bad situationare our test for anger. So we need to control our anger by thinking that something very good is going to happen next.

you are absolutely right.we dont have to blame God for all the adversities we are suffering. God gives us trials to test our faith and sometimes difficulties arise as a direct result of sin, and sometimes it is a means of discipline by God to bring us bachk to Him. Instead of thinking to blame God we should instead pray and let Him do His purpose and evrything will be in its proper place.

people get angry at God of their own doing. humans do not really have a reason to get angry at God. (you may want to reduce on eating meat; instead, eat more veggies and fruits)

I've actually given in on God completely since my mumdied when I was pregnant. There are lots of other reasons too but I just can't believe in the existance of someone who issupposed to be so good and yet does nothing to help starving children living inpoverty and stop cruelty to children and animals. I used to get mad - now I channel my energy into actually helping instead of praying that someone will make it all better. I do what I can forcharity and to make the world a nicer place - I don't need a god for that just Angels, Fairys and magical beings.

No, I don't think I have. I know that what ever happens, happens for the good of those who follow him. I trust his wisdom more than my own. I'm not always happy about things that happen but I have learned to trust God that there is a reason for it. Sometimes things have happened that I thought was terrible but then something much better happened because of it.

no because i don't expect God to help me in my distress. instead, i go on repeating inside "give me strength to overcome this, i know this day will finally be over, just give me strength to hang on" believe me, it calms me a lot. both my husband & me have gone jobless for more than a year immediately after marriage. god didn't gift any job to me, but i eventually overcame the situation without doing anything drastic. he gave me that strength.

i think you do not exactly blame but you tend to question, why did this happen and stuff. though i do not think blaming anyone is a good thing to do.

well i think thats my plus point too that if i have anger on any one just i b alone and talk to myself.so the result is everythng will b cool.bcoz when we r in anger we talk something which we didnot really mean it.so once we lose r temper and through words on others can we take back.never we can take them and once we lost respect it takes long time to biuld up again .so better thing is lock r mouths.and let it b wat ever happens.and there is nothing to shout on god.bcoz life should have happiness and sorrows too.so we should face it.wat can one do for r fate.

Religions - Trust in God and find peace
I think getting angry on Gods will be the most dumbest act anyone could think of. Never mind of distresses always think that What ever happens happens for the good. Life is a game played by the almighty GOD. So beleive in him and he will lead u to the right path and all those who get angry will become calm.

Indeed getting angry is not good. God has nothing to do with our adversities. god is said to be the Remover of sorrow and Bestower of Happiness. So how can God give you sorrow?Just think that God only wants my happiness

pray to GOD - just pray whenever you are down. just have faith and believe that GOD will never leave you. live life with GOD. Do good and GOD will bless you. GOD BLESS US ALL.
never did i get angry to GOD whenever i'm facing a big problem. instead, i always pray to Him and ask for guidance. I always state on my prayers that i trust Him and I know that He has plans for me, for my family, for us. And that I know He has reasons why I am facing a big problem. That's because He wants me/us to be more strong, more determined and be filled with wisdom. Do not get angry when you have huge problems. Just think that life in this world is just temporary, we will live more in the real life with GOD and Jesus. GOD BLESS US ALL.

ya i do become angry on god. actually u can only pray to only him right, so its k if we become angry on him. but sometimes i do feel whn he has given us some many things why should we be angry on him. we should be thankful for all that we have, but still sometimes frustration takes the better of us. Finally we will realise tht wht happens, happens for the best n lead our life
