This Week's Teaching:
MANAGING
YOUR EMOTIONS
3 John 2
We women are notorious for beating
ourselves up for feeling too emotional. We feel guilty that
we are in pain and then we bury those emotions. Did you
know you don’t have to feel guilty for being emotional? God
created you – in the image of God—to feel. The key is to
let Him help you to manage your emotions. To manage means
to control, to administer to conduct. You may be thinking,
how do I manage how I feel, I can’t help how I feel. And
you are partly right, you can’t stop feelings from coming,
but you can manage how you react to those feelings.
Because our emotions are located in our soul realm and our
soul realm is not saved and accessible to Satan, we can’t
always stop those feelings from coming to us, but just as
our spirit man is supposed to grow to the point that it can
control the body, it can also grow to the point that it can
stop you from responding negatively to the emotions or
feelings that Satan or your own human spirit bring. What
are the negative emotions I am talking about?
Anger; Conviction;Contempt ;
Despondency (depression);
Disappointment: Disgust; Envy; Fear; Hate; Pride; Regret;
