The perception of God being angry with us is a significant reason for erratic emotional behavior in our world today. There is a way to deal with the pain of God’s anger in a simple and effective way in the privacy of your home computer, laptop, iPad, or smart phone. This is not a theological piece. We’re not going to try nor could we succeed in convincing you that God is not angry with you. You believe that to be true, so this article will help you deal with the anxiety of thinking that you’re on the outs with your Deity. Actually, as often as not, God is used as an excuse for erratic emotional behavior. Again, whether it is an excuse that you use or not, we’re not going to try to argue that excuse away from you. Whether an excuse or actually God’s anger or not, it’s causing you some anxiety and that anxiety is preventing you from doing good things for yourself; such as rationally considering options and making good decisions – both of which are very difficult in times of emotional anxiety. Effectively dealing with God’s anger is essential for good relationships and for your emotional peace. If you struggle with the issue too long, you may become withdrawn and anxious. Your reaction to God’s anger is triggered by a thought. Such thoughts can cause anxiety, guilt, shame, and a crowd of other emotions. If your reaction to the thoughts causes you enough emotional stress, it can be harmful to you and you need to deal with it. Right now, I want you to pause and think about God’s anger toward you. But DON’T dwell on it. Immediately say to yourself, out loud, “I’m not going to think about that.” If it recurs, say it again, “I’m not going to think about that.” You’ll discover that the thought causing anxiety about God’s anger will go away every time you demand that it go away. This solution for dealing with God’s perceived anger is so simple that many people have trouble accepting it. The most effective way to control anxiety about God’s anger toward you is to say to yourself, out loud, "I will not think about that." Do it as often as necessary and do it out loud. Someone said, “That’s easier said than done.” Not really. You have the innate authority to decide what you want to think about. If a thought about God’s anger makes you anxious, don’t think that thought. It’s your choice! As you make that choice again and again, your subconscious remembers how you like to respond and will start to make your chosen response automatically. It’s amazing how quickly this can happen. Furthermore, you were made with a subconscious mind that has over time formed the opinion that you like thinking about God’s anger. Maybe it’s the only thing that gives your life any value. To be helpful to you, your subconscious gives you all the thoughts it can to reinforce what you like to think about - God’s anger. The process of choosing not to dwell on those thoughts will, over time, convince your subconscious that you do not want to be like that anymore. It’s this process that creates the habit of peace and breaks the habit of thinking God is angry with you. At some point, you won't even realize you are thinking God-anxious thoughts because your subconscious is automatically responding to the thoughts before they become conscious thoughts. When you begin to have periods of peace instead of anxiety about God’s anger, you are in a position to make better decisions about forgiveness, restitution, and/or other life issues as appropriate. Nothing could be more effective than having your subconscious mind respond to your anxiety about God’s anger for you before you even consciously think about it. How cool is that?
