If It Ain’t Gnats, It’s Flies! This is an idiomatic phrase
commonly used in the Southern United States. Since idioms do not translate
well, here it is: this reflects the frustration expressed at seeing one problem
or irritation followed by another and then another. It is the feeling of being
surrounded by nothing but problems, aggravations, and irritations.
Anger and irritation are actually normal and are not
inherently evil. Unchecked anger is.
Often, anger is really about a problem within yourself. If
you are a normal person, you have many unmet expectations and desires.
Anger can be righteous when it aligns with the Lord’s hatred
of sin and injustice. It is a holy act to ask the Lord to help you to properly
handle anger.
