ANGRY BIRD

Ephesians 4:26-27 ESV - Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil

It was our family movie night. The whole family sleep on our small living room and we selected Angry Bird movie as this month movie night.

The story speaks about Red, a bird with a bad temper. Any simple small thing happened not according to his way will trigger a wave of anger, for no reason.

Because of his anger he has no friend and is not accepted in his town. His only friends are the people in the anger management class that he attended.

But in the end of the movie, Red saves his flocks eggs from the Pigs. He managed to channeled his anger to a right purpose. He became a hero and finally accepted by the town.

There are loads of messages in the bible warning us about anger. From Proverbs to Psalms to the book of Matthew and John. All in sending the same message, a message for us to control our anger.

• James 1:19-20 ESV - Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
• Proverbs 19:11 ESV - Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense.
• Ecclesiastes 7:9 ESV - Be not quick in your spirit to become angry, for anger lodges in the bosom of fools
• And many more!!

Bruce Lee once said "A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough"

Like Red the bird, I hope I can channel my temper to a correct channel. To brave myself and serve the town, serve my community, to stand firm on my values while committing to the duty and tasks assigned to me.

I pray that all these many messages can be a rhema in my life. Slow to anger, fast to love.

Thank you Holy Spirit.

I want to be the uplift angry bird :)
