EMOTIONS
Concerns, notions, hopes, fears, dreams, love, hate, sadness, gladness, anxiety, revenge, there are so many emotions that we put our self through each and every day, I’m surprised we don’t blow a fuse. When a cry of despair goes up around us we need to consider the larger picture before we join in. We have better things to use our energy on than all of these fruitless emotions. In the heat of emotion or personal turmoil it is easy to make foolish promises to God. We have all probably done this a time or two. Our promises may sound very sincere and spiritual when we make them, but they may only produce guilt and frustration when we are forced to fulfill them. Making spiritual deals only bring disappointment.

God knows all of the emotions that we experience. The next time strong emotions threaten to overwhelm you, express them openly to God in prayer. This will help us deal with the complete roller coaster of emotions we deal with daily. Be honest and don’t try to hide anything from the savior, he knows and he cares……………..
When you are tempted to get impatient with others, think of how patient God has been with you !!!!!
