Blowing up

If you have a problem with angry outbursts, it is a serious problem and you ought to be concerned about it.

Why?

Because you could some day and cause much damage to your life and to the lives of others.
Why wait until then to do something? Now is the time to take care of the problem before something tragic occurs.

Ask God to help you to say only what He wants you to say and for those listening to only hear what God wants them to hear. If there is a situation that is causing you anger, ask God to help you with it and to take control of it. (1 John 1:9)

Rudeness - should not be a part of a believers' life. We should practice the presence of Christ because He hears every word we say and knows every thought we think. Practicing His presence, consciously acknowledging His presence in tense, anger filled situations, will dispel the explosiveness of those times.

The spiritual fact is that God has the power to change you and to take away the anger.

James 1:19-21.
My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.
