Oh Man It's been a crazy couple days Yeah, I've been pretty pretty angry these past couple days You know, sometimes life is unjust and it's just not fair But we're in a Bible does that tell me that life's gonna be fair We're in the Bible does it tell me that if I do everything right if I do everything that God tells me to do Life's gonna be rainbows and lollipops. There's no guarantees There's not a single religion in this entire world that that guarantees that life's gonna be great evidence saying the Bible I Can't say this though. There's some rage inside of me that I just want to I just want to burn this world down right now but The Bible tells me in James 1 20, I believe it is That human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires In fact, it also tells me the Bible also tells me that anger resides in the laps of fools. I ain't trying to be a fool I'm just trying to be a good Christian man. You know, I'm just trying to I'm just trying to be a father to my child However, it's okay to be angry There's nothing wrong with being angry. What matters is how I respond to that anger I can choose to respond in the way that the devil wants me to respond and that's going back to being the old me. I Can't do that. I can't be the old me The old me got got me snatched up out of the meth house because I was so lost in my darkness But God tells me there's a new way It tells me that I have a new life as long as long as I walk this the road less traveled I can either give in to my anger or I can fight this battle from my knees I can fight it by by by praying with everything that I have Because I know that I don't fight this battle alone None of us fight any of the battles that we go through alone God's with us every step of the way But if we give into our human desires if I give into my flesh of desires, which is which is my anger There's a lot of things I want to do with my anger right now that if I give into it Everything that I've worked for is completely gone Everything that I've worked for Just like that the years and years and years of hard work and effort that I've put in To becoming the man that I am today is gone just like that I can't accept that my daughter deserves a better father than that. I deserve to be a better person than that and I Have to refuse I have I had to to rebuke the devil whenever he tries to release that anger up inside of me because he knows how to get to me the devil knows our weaknesses and he knows that my Children are mine and he will hit us there every single time. He will whisper cuz he's a master of deceit Don't listen to that don't listen to those negative thoughts that he whispers into your ear. Don't let him win Fight these battles from your knees open that book put on the full armor of God You know, the word tells me that the that that God's Word is sharper than any two-edged sword So that's what I'm gonna choose to fight my battle with today It's just Life's not fair Life's not fair. There are no guarantees the only guarantee I have in this world is what the Bible tells me that is if I look to God if I follow His plan if I focus on him with everything that I have He will make straight my paths because he has he has plans to prosper me He doesn't have plans to make me stumble or make me fall. He has plans to prosper me and everybody in this world I believe that I truly believe that So when this anger builds up inside of me, I hit my knees and I pray And I put on my Jesus music this music is a big influence in my life, you know, I found myself yesterday I'm almost going back back to to that angry music. I used to listen to when I was a pissed-off hormonal teenager But I stopped it Put on my Jesus music Made a little things a little bit better. So that's where you're at today. If you're finding yourself just Angry at the world and you're wanting to burn this place down Don't give in to it because it's easy It's easy to give in to the anger because that anger makes us feel good. Whenever we unleash it we unleash that rage Don't let that happen. Don't give in to it. Take the road that's traveled do what's hard Sip outside your comfort zone hit your knees and pray pray it away Don't let the devil win Because God's glory is what I live to serve God's glory is what I'm trying to bring What I'm trying to put out into this world and if I give in to anger that is the exact opposite just the Bible Tells me human anger does not give righteousness that God desires. I Desire to live my life for God I desire to to be an example to my children of how an authentic man walks how an authentic man of God acts on an everyday basis And I and I just I just want to be an example to others of what happens whenever you allow God to take over your life So, I hope you guys are having a wonderful Thursday. It's almost Friday. I Hope this reaches somebody I hope I hope somebody can can get some encouragement from my story. Maybe your story is the same Don't give in to that anger Hit your knees and fight that battle From from the greatest position that you can put on the full armor of God and you take that Bible Which is sharper than any two-edged sword and you face Satan and you tell him not today Not today Satan Y'all stay frosty me some amigos and never forget Jesus loves you
