Love Is Not Easily Angered

Love is a harbor for peace, disallowing the residence of frustration and
irritation that enables a quick display of anger.
A quick outburst of anger is evidence of a longer residing annoyance.
Love cannot hold onto frustrations long enough for them to be
displayed in anger.
With a display of anger is severing of the relationship where love is in need
of demonstration.
With love is short-lived anger.
Anger is the outward evidence of an intense self-focus that cannot see the
needs of others or any way of loving them.
It will wreak havoc if not eradicated immediately. It can be with the help
of the Holy Spirit.

Application:
Prayer – “Create in me a heart that is free from any place for frustration,
irritation or pride to reside. Keep me from the outbursts of anger that
would threaten relationships and disable the demonstration of love in my
life. When I do respond in anger, lead me quickly to its resolution so that
love can dominate and be seen once again.”
Intentional action: On purpose become sensitive to growing frustrations,
and instead of defending and owning them, see them as the powder keg
for anger that they are. Instead of talking to yourself and magnifying them
