Anger, Stress And Ailments
I don't think it is far beside the truth when I say that I have a lot of patience, but even that has its limits. Although very few have found the boundaries, I do run out at times and get angry.
Getting angry is okay, staying angry can do a lot of harm; mentally, emotionally, but also physically. Stress hormones which are released in the body can cause all kinds of negative side-effects such as higher levels of blood sugar, increased blood pressure, over-eating, heart damage, irregular heartbeat, and an increased risk of heart attacks.
Anger is a perfectly, natural reaction and I usually don't stay angry for very long. Lately however, there has been so much going on and it keeps me upset and tense almost all the time. It tells me I am at the end of my rope and since there is nothing I can do about it, I have to let go and let God.
I know God doesn't put more on us then we can bear and He can and will change it in an instance. I would do better to focus on all His blessings and rejoice in those, instead of dwelling on all the hurt; it does more harm then I was aware of!
Romans 15:5
Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus,
