By Banji Ayoola
Anger is a destructive weakness we should address and eliminate from within ourselves.
Anger is harmful and hostile to the Light.
When you are angry, you step out of the ring of protection of the Light surrounding you; your blood becomes hot; your eyes turn red; your muscles swell up; your speech becomes incoherent.
You are filled up with rage; you are enraged. You become shaky and uncoordinated; you lose your senses; you become irrational; you become violent; you can destroy.
You thereby turn yourself over to alien forces that have now taken over and control you. You thereby become a tool of the Darkness. Thus you can be used by it to cause destruction and against the Light.
So, purge yourself of anger. Eradicate it. Eliminate it from within you.
Anger stands in the way of your service to the Light. It bars you from fulfilment.
So, caution and correct yourself.
When there arises a situation that tempts you to be angry, hold back. Be still. Do and say nothing. Turn away from the scene. Take a deep breath. And pray: Lord, Be Thou with me. Do not leave me alone.
