Day 12: When Good Men Get Angry
  • 3 percent of surveyed men said they never get annoyed by what other people say or do
  • 80 percent say the get annoyed a few times a day
  • 15 percent say they get annoyed many times a day
  • And 1 percent say they're annoyed all the time
I guess I fall under the biggest population, I do get annoyed a few times a day.

I guess thats why my wife bought me a book by Bill Perkins which specifically spoke about anger management (Ouch!)

"WHEN GOOD MEN GET ANGRY" - The spiritual art of managing anger

It is our 11 years wedding anniversary gift for me :) 11 years of suffering for her (Haha)

Proverbs 14:29 says Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.

Thats what the 1st page of the book said, somehow it echoed the Day 11 devotion message.

His way is indeed mysterious. Sending affirmation of devotion through a gift, a book. What an out of the box approach of our God.

Proverbs 16:32 says Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city.

While Psalm 37:8 reminded us saying Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret--it leads only to evil.

I think the message is very clear to me. I think the reminder is strong enough for me.

I think, this year is indeed a year of uplifting. I see how God touches each one of us and remind us on specific area of improvement that we, individually, need to focus on (come on, dont be shy, I believe He also speaks to you)

I think, this is indeed a year of uplifting for all of us

Think about it, if each one of us, improved the area that He wants us to improve, collectively, we will have a massive blessed power of improvement! For you and your family!

And remember, the book says "When Good Men ....", so, I am a good man, so are you. Wouldn't it be awesome when these bunch of Good Men is uplifted and become Great Men? (And also the Good Women to become Great Women)
