Controlling Anger & Keeping Cool

In this powerful Kids teaching, our Kids @ The Well Team explore the challenging topic of anger and its impact on our spiritual lives. Drawing from the story of Moses striking the rock in Numbers 20, we learn that while anger itself is not a sin, allowing it to control us can lead to destructive consequences. Just as Moses paid a high price for his outburst, we too can suffer when we let our anger take the reins. The key lesson here is that we have a choice in how we respond to our emotions. By turning to God in moments of frustration and seeking His help, we can learn to control our anger rather than letting it control us. This message encourages us to view our anger as a 'hand grenade' - potentially destructive if mishandled, but manageable with God's guidance. As we reflect on this, let's consider how we can better channel our emotions and speak life into others, remembering that our words and actions have the power to build up or tear down those around us.
