What angers you most? Anger can be defined as love in motion toward a threat to that which you love. To live wise and discerning lives we must learn to understand and handle our anger and the anger of others. At the cross Jesus Christ absorbed our misguided rage toward Him. Not only did He take on our anger but He took on the Father's anger toward us as well. A powerful example for how we are to handle anger, to come closer, absorb and don't pay back.
