Anger is displayed when you are not satisfied with where you are, what you are doing and you can’t do anything about it. It’s wanting and not having. These desires may or may not be godly, and there is no earthly means that will alleviate the dilemma. There are lots of reasons for anger, but only one cause – dissatisfaction.
