Everyday Stirred Emotions

​I shared with a friend on Facebook that we shouldn’t let the enemy stir up our emotions of worry lest we fall into fear and depression.  Hey this is Debbie Griffith with Everyday Matters. And my friend Amy wrote back; “So being without emotion is a good thing? God can use it to protect me from evil?”
“Well,” I said, “God gives us our feelings and emotions which is a good thing, but we shouldn't be controlled by them.  We may feel afraid, but we don't need to let the feeling of fear control our behavior.  We can step out in faith and courage knowing God is with us.  We might FEEL, shaky, like throwing up, or break out in a cold sweat but let’s not let Satan intimidate. The enemy wants to use our feelings of fear and depression to immobilize us. Repeating the truth that God is with us and never leaves us is what helps us to walk in faith.” Take one step at a time knowing 2 Corinthians 12:9; His grace is sufficient, and His power works best in weakness…everyday.”
