Silent Rage

There are folk, in church or non-church family
Abounding in warmth; "Hi folks!" with charm
Least expected ... On the couch, deep memory:
Kind misdeeds, intent ignored: cut on thy palm

NOTE: a pastor may counsel successful churchgoers & find unsorted anger & hurts, rumbling & smoking with volcanic ferocity. Watch for small signs: the unkindly cuts from charming people. So, talk  ....talk, talk, talk. Someone will listen so that volcanoes will be natural disasters, not human. Shalom ShalOm

yes, so many misdeeds that result in rage. Many things to watch out for.

In our last Sunday Mass the priest said something on these lines. Do you simply hear or listen?

Yes, sur, pastors must share Scripture on Sundays, but emotional health is ignored in most places. Romans 8 & 12 talk much about " new" men, women,vpeople in Jesus, and RENEWING our minds. Blessings to you & all in Malta, Victor
