A couple of people have just behaved like hateful assholes to someone I adore. Cruel, selfish, putting him down because it's their only possible defense of their own bad behavior.
I have been fantasizing about all the mean things I could say to them. I've been so furious that my arms tingle, my head aches, and my jaw hurts from clenching my teeth.
I suspect this may be how God feels when we all, when I myself, mistreat people. Well, maybe not the name-calling and the visions of boiling oil, but definitely the anger. It's a thought that dilutes fury with humility.
But I still don't think I should talk to them right now...

peace (and anger) cause you can't know the one without the other
ReplyDeleteWe have all felt that way. I never imagined God feeling that way...very interesting.
ReplyDeleteyup. I think God's anger and God's love are related.
