Karen Ehman

“Do Not Sin Three simple little words, but they sometimes seem like an impossible feat: do not sin. What does anger taken into the level of sin look like? It might be shouting. Or sarcasm. Or belittling someone. It isn’t verbalizing your displeasure over someone else’s actions. If someone’s actions have angered you, telling them in a straightforward and calm manner is a reasonable thing to do. Letting the anger escalate to the point of an outburst is what crosses the line into sin. Or if you’re not the explosive type, there is equal opportunity for sin in letting angry feelings ice over into a wall of bitterness and resentment.”
