Danger Of Festering Anger

Yes we see and experience a lot of injustice in the world, and yes we get angry about the injustice.
Yet it is written in Ephesians 4:26 "be angry, and do not sin, do not let the sun go down on your wrath."
We are instructed to not allow anger to sit up and fester, becoming something nasty and ugly, which is what happens when anger is left alone to feed on angry words and thoughts. It gives way to angry, hateful actions.
This is just the type of opportunity the enemy, Satan, looks for so that he may use his now angry victim to reap havoc, and cause an snowball effect of devastation.
He uses anger left to fester, causing people to commit all types of horrific crimes, and sinful deeds,  leaving many victims.
The person with the unresolved anger, the recipient of their anger, and the loved ones who are left trying to pickup  the shattered pieces of  lives damaged by this
festering anger.
We have a choice in the matter of anger.
We can either control it or allow anger to control us.
We can also carry all that concerns, or bothers us to the Lord, including our  issues of anger.
Psalm55:22 "cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you, He shall never permit the righteous to be moved."
God will repay the injustice done toward  you.
Deuteronomy 32:35 " Vengeance is mine and recompense, their foot shall slip in due time, for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things to come hasten upon them."
