Emotionalism & Feelings- How we tend to be led by them!

 Good morning all. God is good all the time, all the time God is good. YOU ARE BLESSED, A CHILD OF GOD--SO, ACT LIKE IT!!

   How often are we led by our emotions or how we feel?  Here, try this drug, it really makes you feel good.  Let's get a case of beer and get a buzz.  Man, I like the way strong alcohol makes me feel. Or some other emotional feeling; cigarettes, cutting down others, make rude comments to others, telling inappropriate jokes.  Why do we do these things?  Because it make us FEEL GOOD. 
  God does not look at our emotions; HE looks at our heart.  What is in the HEART comes out of the LIPS!!  We can party with alcohol, drugs, or just plain foolishness, BUT we do not have the conviction to attend church, go to a Bible study, read our Bible, or just pray and talk to GOD.
  WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE!!  PROVERBS 12: 15 The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice.
   God gave us our feelings and emotions for a reason. Living by faith doesn't mean we ignore them. They are not evil by themselves, but what we allow our thoughts to dwell on may be negative and causing an unhealthy overload of negative emotions.
  SO,where are you today?  Living by your emotions - you know - IF IT FEELS GOOD JUST DO IT!  OR, are you living by your LOVE FOR GOD?  
  Take a moment to read Proverbs 12 and see the contrast between the righteous and the evil doer. Well, my friend, how are you led? By emotions or by your Godly heart?  Thank you for reading. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
