Do not fear the emotions you feel, My child, or seek to deny them, for that will inevitably lead you to greater turmoil. I have created you to be an emotional being, for you are made in My image, and I communicate with you through emotions.
Who has not felt awe when glimpsing My majesty and power as illustrated by My creation, revealing the invisible characteristics of My nature by their visible manifestation?
My love is what has drawn you to Me, even as you were working against My kingdom, for what comes from the heart speaks to the heart, creating faith within you.
My anger, when revealed against those who persistently and, by choice of lifestyle, continually break My laws and reject My commands, produces fear and trembling in the minds of those who see its expression.
My jealousy is hot against those who call themselves by My name but give the worship and praise which is due Me, their Creator, to some part of My creation, rejecting the One Who made them.
My joy is poured forth on all who faithfully seek Me, for when they find Me our fellowship is sweet and hope becomes reality as confidence increases.
Emotions are tied to circumstances but extend beyond them, My dear one. They are part of relationship, not of decision-making. I supply the wisdom and understanding, the direction and guidance needed for making choices in your life.
The flesh knows emotions, and the enemy knows emotions, and all will try to communicate with you through your emotions. By keeping your heart pure before Me and your attention on Me, you can know Me closely and intimately, recognizing when that which is not of Me enters the picture.
Walk in My truth and wisdom, My precious one, but do not be afraid to talk in My love and act in My compassion as My Spirit directs you. There is much more to knowing Me than simply emotion, but if you fear your feelings and turn them off, there is so much less that I can be for you than you need.
Receive My love, and walk in My truth.
May you rejoice as your heart receives the Word of God, understanding the priceless treasure you are being given, and sharing with others the beauty of the One Who has loved you so. Romans 3
