Anger and Frustration

 

Anger and frustration is easy to get

Hotheaded and bitterness, then we fret

Selfishness and greediness is pleasure to no one

Words of hate out of our month, it hurts a ton

Why do we allow our flesh to get in the way?

If only we would kneel and pray

Where do wars and fights come from?

They come from your own desires for pleasure

We lust we covet and do not have

We desire for more and bigger treasures

Let’s not war or fight

Just come to God and ask Him

He knows everything we need

Our cup is already full to the brim

If only we would recognize all that we have

Be thankful and praise God for sending His Son

Maybe then we will not war or fight

Because see, the victory has already been won

Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members? You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

James 4:1-3
