 John
Good Morning! I’m John Branning the Lead Pastor of Central United Methodist Church. I have found that it is easy to make people angry. We can anger people by our actions or inactions. We can say something or participate in an action that harms the wellbeing of those around us. If you are like me, most often it is not our intent to hurt anyone in any way. This makes me believe that most people don’t intend on hurting us especially those that love us most.

Ecclesiastes 7:6 says, Don't let your spirit rush to be angry, for anger abides in the heart of fools. When people say or do something that hurts us, let us not rush to anger. This is good advice for all of us, before we let the actions of others affect the way that we live and love today. Let us give one another the benefit of the doubt. After all we are all fallible people prone to say and do the wrong thing. If we forgive and resist anger life becomes more enjoyable.
