Get Over It.

Ephesians 4:26 (New International Reader's Version)

26 Scripture says, "When you are angry, do not sin."—(Psalm 4:4) Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.

We live in an day and age where the word entitlement is ingrained in our vocabulary. We believe that we have certain rights because our laws say that we do. The right that we seem to exercise the most is the right to our own opinion, because we want our own way. We say what we want when we want to because we feel like it. This is an easy way to get into trouble and it's sin.

We usually behave this way because someone said or did something that we didn't like and we want retribution. It's personal and we're going to get them back. We do this most often to the people that we know and love. They know where to hit us and those kind of wounds are even worse. Don't fall into that trap.

We have to get past our hurt or it will never heal. It's like picking a scab, the more we play with it the worse it gets. God wants us to forgive and forget so we can move on. The sooner the better. We can be angry but retribution is not the answer. When this day is over tomorrow will be a new day with new challenges. Don't carry the old ones over, let them go and give them to God, you'll sleep better at night.

Get over it.
