 The presence of fear within individuals suggests a deficiency in their capacity to experience love, highlighting the inherent contradiction that arises when fear and love coexist. Likewise, the level of impact exerted by sin cannot equate to that of grace, analogous to the game of paper-rock-scissors where paper consistently prevails over rock. The fundamental source of all our challenges can be attributed to anger, as it functions as a response to suffering. Therefore, our suffering signifies a manifestation of fear, anxiety, and anger.In order to effectively manage feelings of anger, it is essential to critically examine our understanding of justice. Justice can be defined as the realization of divine will and desires. Thus, every problem we encounter has already been resolved through divine intervention and the judgments made by God are consistently correct.This implies that by evaluating the extent of our grief in terms of our capacity for anger, even in the event of a catastrophic collapse of the world or confrontation with the collective military might of all nations, we can still maintain a sense of assurance due to the predetermined fulfillment of divine providence. In order to prevent the emergence of anger, it is imperative to recognize that the consequences of God's justice exceed our imagination. In essence, the strength of our adversaries is contingent upon our portrayal of God as diminutive in our perception.In order to reduce the impact of fear, it is crucial to recognize that God's love is evident in his fair distribution of both positive and negative circumstances for our ultimate benefit. If God, in his fairness, governs all things for our advantage, then our personal anger is overshadowed by his perfect demonstration of love and wrath. Perfect love encompasses not only God's love permeating our beings, but also our self-love rooted in the value bestowed upon us by God. Our anger is transformed in God's rejuvenation process, as it is converted into something advantageous for our well-being.
