For sometime now, I'v being thinking about why we shout when in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?' Someone said, because we lose our calm. But why shout when the other person is just next to you? Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? I'v had the opportunity of interviewing lot of people with regards to this question. They all gave different answers but the fact's I'm not really satisfied with those answers. I kept asking, then... lately I got a rhema in Proverbs 15:1. This passage made me undastand that, 'when two people are angry at each other, there is a distance in their hearts psychologically. To cover the distance, they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are,the stronger they will shout to hear each other through that great distance. Picture two people who are really in love with eachother, having swell time together, in a romantic mood. They won't shout at each other at that time but rather talk softly. Why? Because their hearts are psychologically close. The distance between them is very close. When they love each other even more, what happens? They don't speak, only whisper and they even get closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that's all.
So next time you shout at a loved one, know that you are creating distance between your heart and that person’s heart.
Proverbs 15:1 says "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
