IS IT OK TO BE ANGRY WITH GOD? Being angry with God is what the Bible calls “sin.” We sin when we break the Lord’s commandments. Being angry with God shows a lack of faith in Him and that is a sin. However, God wants us to tell Him when we are angry or upset with Him. It’s better to be honest than to bury feelings that He already knows about. The Lord knows life can be frustrating and isn’t ready to crush us when we question His ways. A peace that passes human understanding is available to those who take their pain and frustration to Him with an open heart and mind. God may not answer all your questions but He cares and promises to bless the “weary and heavy laden” that turn to Him. The Lord is not hyper-sensitive to criticism. He is more-than-big-enough to handle your anger in a loving way. Never hesitate to tell God exactly what you’re thinking and feeling.
