Getting A Grip On Your Emotions

 

 “You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle” (Psalm 56:8, ESV). 

Satan likes to push buttons and get you to react without thinking. I had an afternoon recently where a heart breaking issue in my life started to get the best of me and I knew better than to pick up the phone and call the party involved cause it would mess up God’s timing and plan. 

Oh waiting is so very difficult. In the fictional faith based movie ‘Redeeming Love’ the main character Michael Hosea was tested a lot by waiting and not intervening. It is hard! You pray, you wait, you be still. God has a plan. He has not forgotten you. 

Are you dealing with something very heart wrenching today that you have no control over? Trying to play God is never a good idea. Those little tear ducts God designed when he made the human body are exactly where we need to let our emotions flow from. Holding stuff inside will contribute to health issues. If you have a good cry often you feel better and can think and pray more efficiently. Now go trust God and let Him know your heart. 

PRAYER: Many are suffering from emotional isolation from family or are going through unimaginable pain trying to restore and rekindle a relationship. Help them Lord. Help me too. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
