John 15:9-11 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. (NIV)

Who is responsible when youare angry, upset, frustrated or disappointed? Do you blame another for the reasons for you actions? If so, then what are we really responsible for if not for our own actions? If I am not responsible for being angry when I am cut off in traffic, then who is? Maybe I believe your actions cause me to be angry, but the truth is; we alone are responsible for how we react in all situations. It's okay to be angry, but don't hold on to it, don't blame others, don't allow those feelings to cause you bitterness. It's your actions which cause you discomfort, it's how you respond, not who caused those actions. Learn to control your own actoins. Learn that getting angry in traffic in only hurting yourself because the one who you believe caused you to be angry has no idea how you feel. Be responsible for yourself and your actions, turn your life around and be a good example to thers by exemplifying Christ actions instead of negative worldly actions. John 15:12-14 My command is this; love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. (NIV)
