Angry Mobs

I have seen so many angry posts in the last few days. I listen to Dennis Prager fireside chats every week and this week he was notably angry. He even said at the end of the chat that it was his angriest fireside chat ever. I happened across Glenn Beck, I have never listened to him before so I don't know his normal disposition, but he was very angry in the post I saw this week. I was on Facebook and I saw a post from a pastor friend of mine and I was very disturbed by what a pastor was posting. And as I was looking at this I saw a whole bunch more Trump Derangement syndrome type stuff and I thought I do not need to be this man's friend.   I can handle some disagreements and views different than mine but when it is spewing some very false info, I felt it was time to disconnect. It is very tempting to become just as angry.  I have prayed to God what wicked ways do I need to turn from to meet the conditions of 2 Chronicles 7:14. This anger being promoted on Facebook is like joining a mob.  And we see what happens when a mob gets out of control. I have heard reports where peaceful protestors have found pallets of bricks dropped off in an area they were planning to protest. People are fanning the flames of discord. It does not help.  Nobody is defending the cops that killed George Floyd.  Someone pointed out the Attorney General of Minnesota is a Muslim and a Black man, does anyone in their right mind think that justice is not going to be gotten for George Floyd under this democratic administration? If this area has been under democratic rulership for 50 years why are they saying systematic racism? You start looking at this and seeing the questions being asked and answered and you wonder what is this really about?  I tend to want to be angry also. 
Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires. James 1:20 (NLT)
25So stop telling lies. Let us tell our neighbors the truth, for we are all parts of the same body. 26And “don’t sin by letting anger control you.” Ephesians 4:26
31Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. 32Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you. Ephesians 4:31-32  But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language. Colossians 3:8   I don't want to join the angry mob on Facebook or in person. Help me to be a minister of reconciliation. So I think about my prayer and what "wicked ways" do I need to repent of and here I am reading all these angry posts and here is what God's word says about anger. I do not want to become part of the angry mob on Facebook. Is there injustice and wrong in our land. Yes, I think of Amiya Braxton and I wonder why there were no protest about this 7-year-old girl. I think of the angry police officers post, I don't know if he was a chief or what his rank was but he was angry also. He was critique by a reporter for looking at his phone in a news conference, and he replies yes I was, I was getting the latest updates on a five-year-old girl that was shot in the head while sitting in her father's lap in a drive-by shooting. He continued, you all can give me the names of many of these men like George Floyd but can you name three of the last victims of senseless violence right here?  Not his exact words but close enough. Lets not become part of an angry mob on Facebook or in person. It does not promote actual justice. Righteousness and Justice go hand in hand.  God bless, LVZ.
