are you angry with God?

Have you ever found yourself angry, upset, or deeply frustrated with God? You’re not alone. Many of us experience moments of confusion, pain, and even anger towards God, especially when life’s hardships and tragedies strike unexpectedly. At Desert Springs Church, we understand these emotions and want to help guide you through them.

Understanding Your Anger

Life can be full of uncertainty, pain, problems, and heartbreaking tragedies. During these difficult times, it’s natural to ask questions like:

• “God, if you’re loving, why did you let this happen?”

• “God, how could you do this to me?”

• “Why would you allow this pain?”

These feelings and questions can make us feel distant from God, doubting His love, authority, and power.

God’s Message for You

In Psalms 46:10, God reminds us:

“Be still and know that I am God.”

Let this truth sink deeply into your heart. Even when we don’t understand or agree with how things are unfolding, God remains sovereign, in charge, and infinitely loving. His love for you is everlasting and unwavering, even in your deepest moments of anger and doubt.

The Path to Healing

The key to overcoming anger towards God isn’t shaking our fists or demanding answers. True healing begins by coming to Jesus Christ, seeking His forgiveness, and trusting in His sacrifice on the cross. Jesus died for us, carrying our pain and sin, offering comfort and redemption.

A Prayer for Comfort

If you’re struggling with anger toward God, we invite you to join in this prayer:

Lord Jesus, please be near to those who are hurting, angry, and upset. Grant them the strength to trust You even through their pain. Help them depend on You and experience the comfort and peace of Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
