Emotions.....what a wonderful part of life. Finding balance in our emotions is an ongoing plight. Every day I have a choice as to where I put my emotional energy. There ARE good and bad emotional choices. Just because I feel something doesn't make it right. If I am in prayer every morning and stay focused, I will accomplish emotional balance and God's direction. Satan is always trying to get my emotions and when he does it only leads to unrest.
Here is an excerpt from today's Girlfriends in God devotion! I needed this today!!
We constantly need to check our emotional balance, guarding the emotional withdrawals we allow and diligently making consistent emotional deposits. Prayer, solitude, Bible study, friendships, service, accountability and a guarded thought life are just a few of the deposits that can make the difference between emotional health and emotional bankruptcy.
Emotional imbalance occurs when we operate in our own strength, doing our "own thing" instead of wholly depending upon God and living in the parameters of His will. When we abandon all that we are to His strength, purpose and power, the Father deposits everything we need to accomplish every good work He created us to do.
