Lies I Believed (Part 1): Anger is always Bad

Is Anger Sinful?"<title/> <meta name="description" content="Learn about role of anger in abuse recovery."> <meta name="keywords" content="anger and abuse, healing from abuse, anger can be good, abuse recovery"> </head> How many of our subconscious beliefs line up with the Bible and how many are only half truths that have percolated through the manure of our abuse experiences? During the recovery process, I have discover angered I believed things that didn't really line up with the Bible. Abuse is not an honest teacher and yet, it is a strong teacher. It takes prayer and patience to overcome the old ideas. This is the first in a series of posts that will explore false beliefs that plagued me and others who have been abused.<br /> <br /> I didn't have a healthy view of anger. All anger was wrong because I associated anger with abuse. Angry people raped, tore others apart emotionally, told lies, said mean things, etc. I jumped from that belief to believing that a good Christian should never, ever get angry. I thought that's what turning the other cheek was all about.<br /> <br /> My ideas made sense to me. They fit my environment. They seemed logical. But they were lies that limited me and served abusers. I couldn't express anger. Abusers are very okay with that. I stuffed my anger and years later discovered that all of my other feelings had become hostages of the denial as well. <br /> <br /> When I began reading the Bible as a child, I was confused by the verses that showed that God gets angry--but, he is God of the universe so I trusted that his anger was always right and never abusive (truth) and that he was the only one who was capable of righteous anger (a lie).<br /> <br /> I noticed that humans in the Biblical accounts got angry too. And sometimes it seemed okay and sometimes it didn't seem okay at all (such as with Moses' anger in Exodus 32 versus his anger in Numbers 20:1-13). What was the difference? My original ideas slowly began to crumble. Maybe there were times and ways that people could be angry in a righteous manner--but it was easy, way too easy to lose control and sin in anger. My new belief accepted that anger isn't always sinful (true), but held firmly to the belief that humans almost always lose control of anger and harm others and themselves. So I reasoned that good Christians should always avoid outward expressions of anger (a lie) and should always confess any internal feelings of anger to God as sinful acts (a lie). Somewhere along the line, I'd read the Bible enough times to see that righteous anger involves being angry at the things that anger God. So feeling anger at Satan's deceitfulness is acceptable (truth).<br /> <br /> I also began recognizing more how angry I became with  myself whenever I fell into sin, or performed imperfectly or made stupid mistakes. I was frequently unkind to myself in my inner dialogue. God's spirit gently convicted methat much of my angry self-talk was self-abusive...a continuation of the negatives about myself that I absorbed from my abusers. I believed I was incompetent. I believed I was a failure because I was imperfect. I believed I wasn't worth protecting or taking care of. I believed I was never going to be good enough. (All these beliefs were opposite of God's messages to us in the Bible. He hates sin but he loves us. He doesn't expect perfection. He didn't make a huge mistake in creating me. He didn't want me to hate myself). <br /> <br /> During my young adult years, I continued to repress any anger toward others.  I thought I just didn't do anger. I didn't feel anger over the abuse--just disappointment and resignation. I didn't feel anger when my boundaries were violated, I felt tired instead. I didn't feel anger when someone was cruel to me, I felt worry for the other and self-doubt toward myself. I didn't identify or acknowledge my anger, but sometimes I acted angry anyway.<br /> <br /> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuEmnuAIwERUEHoJm8167mT8FyZco1A7L6k9mODuBmTzNnKMz0liiVE-9Kz35_ZO6E9qTDbiu-lMV9ctMS9C0aAEeXbJVr8j3Hqpmek2GywQ-it8qqjBdkWQPb-H3hls0Q-gMwijqzcao/s1600/file000453698099.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuEmnuAIwERUEHoJm8167mT8FyZco1A7L6k9mODuBmTzNnKMz0liiVE-9Kz35_ZO6E9qTDbiu-lMV9ctMS9C0aAEeXbJVr8j3Hqpmek2GywQ-it8qqjBdkWQPb-H3hls0Q-gMwijqzcao/s320/file000453698099.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Photo by Emanuele Cerroni <br /> <div class="location-and-url" style="line-height: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"> <a href="http://t.co/SMO6JEipVK" target="_blank" title="http://about.me/emanuelecerroni"><b><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 10.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="color: #be6301;">about.me/emanuelecerroni </span></span></b></a></div> </td></tr> </tbody></table> In those same years, I discovered that I could, and did, become angry for the benefit of others. I felt angry when children were abused. I felt angry when I learned that a neighbor was being abused by her husband. I was fearless about banging on apartment doors or calling the police when I heard a man abusing his wife. I called the police without hesitation, when I witnessed a man attacking his girlfriend in a parking lot.<br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.blogger.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a>It wasn't until I reached middle-aged that I was finally able to get in touch with the anger over abuse  done to me. I didn't like being treated that way. I didn't want anyone else to violate me again. I wasn't "okay with" any type of abuse.  Today, I don't choose to be in friendship with people who are comfortable abusing others. I choose nice people to be friends with. Today, I am more patient and understanding in my self-talk--even when I sin or make mistakes. Today, I can acknowledge my anger to myself and then give myself respect as I decide how I want to express or not express my anger to others. Anger is now one of many feelings I experience. Anger isn't bad; it's a signal that invites me to take note of myself, another person's behavior, and my boundaries. <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.blogger.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"></span><br /> <br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Related posts</span>:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://dazzlingwings.blogspot.com/2009/09/anger.html">Anger</a><br /> <br />  <a href="http://dazzlingwings.blogspot.com/2009/10/who-are-you-blaming.html">Who are You Blaming</a><br /> <br /> <a href="http://dazzlingwings.blogspot.com/2009/04/anger.html">Anger?</a><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br /> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Tweetables</span>:<br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Lies an Abuse Victim Told Herself about Anger <a href="http://clicktotweet.com/xO8y5">Click to Tweet</a></span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Are Christians Allowed to Get Angry? <a href="http://clicktotweet.com/bXf4k">Click to Tweet</a></span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Abuse Breeds Un-Biblical Beliefs about Anger <a href="http://clicktotweet.com/e70A9">Click to Tweet</a></span><br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <h2 class="username"> <span class="url editable-group"><span class="profile-field"></span></span> </h2> <br /> <br /> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00838074093892841482' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00838074093892841482' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Tanya T.

Come join us on a life-giving journey of change.<br/><br/><br/> </div> <div class='clear'></div> </div><div class='widget LinkList' data-version='1' id='LinkList1'> <h2>Helpful Resources</h2> <div class='widget-content'> <ul> <li><a href='http://www.focusministries1.org/'>Focus Ministries</a></li> <li><a href='http://www.ndvh.org/'>National Domestic Violence Hotline</a></li> <li><a href='http://www.peaceandsafety.com/'>Peace And Safety in the Christian Home</a></li> <li><a href='http://www.projectsafegirls.com/'>Project Safe Girls</a></li> <li><a href='http://www.rainn.org/'>Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network</a></li> <li><a href='http://www.thesilverbraid.org/'>The Silver Braid</a></li> <li><a href='http://timesupblog.blogspot.com/'>Times Up!</a></li> <li><a href='http://witnessjustice.org/'>Witness Justice: Help and Healing for Victims of Violence</a></li> </ul> <div class='clear'></div> </div> </div></div> </div></div> <div id='sidebarbottom-wrap1'><div id='sidebarbottom-wrap2'> <div class='sidebar section' id='sidebar'><div class='widget HTML' data-version='1' id='HTML3'> <h2 class='title'>Email Subscriptions powered by FeedBlitz</h2> <div class='widget-content'> <form id="feedblitz" action="http://www.feedblitz.com/f/f.fbz?Track" name="feedblitz" method="POST"><p>Your email address:<br/><input maxlength="255" value="" name="EMAIL" size="20" type="text"/><br/><input value="" name="FEEDID" type="hidden"/><input value="9715266" name="PUBLISHER" type="hidden"/><input value="Get email updates" type="submit"/><br/>Powered by <a href="http://www.feedblitz.com">FeedBlitz</a></p></form><script language="javascript" src="http://www.feedblitz.com/js/typepad-widget.js"></script> </div> <div class='clear'></div> </div><div class='widget Profile' data-version='1' id='Profile1'> <h2>About Me</h2> <div class='widget-content'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00838074093892841482'><img alt='My photo' class='profile-img' height='80' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW3RwVrNVknBtQmNJ4IzhzqJnWAE9kwrewiUtlUWrdIgmSpNeDWfrLnVaSDdltWA8cXjwAffD6z300UxV8qRdY9YQrCdbQhkQxdYm0IRXu9YMkvqYjcbEGspPPHzO_XRM/s220/3.jpg' width='62'/></a> <dl class='profile-datablock'> <dt class='profile-data'> <a class='profile-name-link g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00838074093892841482' rel='author' style='background-image: url(//www.blogger.com/img/logo-16.png);'> Tanya T. Warrington </a> </dt> <dd class='profile-data'>Masonville, CO, United States</dd> <dd class='profile-textblock'>For thirty-five years, I felt worthless. It seemed like I wore a sign across my chest inviting others to abuse me. Unfortunately, I had an abundance of personal experience with being a victim of domestic violence, incest, emotional abuse, physical abuse, date rape, verbal abuse, and spiritual abuse. And then I experienced being the mother and stepmother of children who were assaulted by a pedophile.I felt like a cursed woman. Since multiple people felt comfortable assualting me and then my children I assumed that there was something wrong with me. I had let me myself down in some unknown, mysterious way. What if God let me down, too? One day, in desperation, I prayed asking God to end the abuse. God heard. He rescued me. He continues to heal me. His kindness, grace, and mercy far exceed anything I could’ve imagined or hoped for. He has given me dazzling wings to soar above the pain of past abuse, spreading His message of hope: God does not approve of violence in any of its manifestations. He rescues those who cry out to Him. He heals the wounded.</dd> </dl> <a class='profile-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00838074093892841482' rel='author'>View my complete profile</a> <div class='clear'></div> </div>
