The 3 Purposes Of Anger In A Relationship

By Christopher Hall

So many people abuse anger. You get angry, you let anger control you, and all you can think about is getting even. That is not the purpose of anger. Let’s take a look at the 3 proper purposes of anger and how it can be used to improve a relationship.

3 Purposes of Anger
1. Anger stirs us up to correct a wrong or an injustice
2. Anger is a motivator
3. Anger gives us passion and determination

Keep in mind these 3 purposes of anger. All anger is supposed to do is make us want to correct a wrong. When you see an injustice, anger swells up inside of you, and it motivates you to do something.

Let’s look at a Biblical example. Saul, the king of Israel, was at one time a timid king. There was a city in Israel under attack, and the enemy said that they were going to invade the city and poke out the right eyes of everyone in the city. The Bible says that the Spirit of God moved upon Saul and Saul was filled with anger.

Part of what the Spirit of God did to Sail was make him angry. This proves that anger is not a bad thing. Anger has its purpose, and its purpose is to motivate us to correct injustices. But anger never solves the problem.

Let’s say some huge guy starts messing with my wife. There is no doubt that this guy could thump me and kill me in a second! I mean, this guy has muscles bulging out all over the place. Does that mean that I shouldn’t do anything about the situation? No! Whether it’s logical, practical, or feasible for me to stop the guy, anger is going to build up inside of me and force me to do something.

And that is why we were given the emotion of anger. To motivate us to correct a problem. But remember, once you are motivated, you must turn off the anger, and calmly and logically come to a conclusion on how to correct the problem.
