Emotions Senses, systems, minds and emotions God created all To be trained for Godly use until our final call So much exists to entice and excite luring us into sin But the best by far is always found closely following Him God allows us to experience sorrows and pleasures Yet senses and emotions make awful wrong and right measurers As do smell, taste, vision or what we've heard For that very reason He gave us the truth in biblical word. Lean not on your own understanding we're told But on Jesus (the WORD), more precious than gold He is THE way, THE life and THE light Only through the WORD, jis found true wrong and right Emotions are great cars on our train But are not meant as engines to drive our brain Imagine how poorly we'd eat emotionally driven And all the temptations to which we'd give in. |

dear S; Wonderfu poem, and a reminder that is always needed. If Jesus is in control of all those emotions, we're free. If not then we're slaves to them! Great message of wisdom and truth, as usual, you've done a beutiful job here. Love, Ellie 02 |

May I add my amen to your wise and wonderful poetic exhortation. I think you have made the case very clear-In answer to a recent question asked, THIS IS EXCELLENT!! But I don't want to short change it for it is also excellent counsel for us all-spoken in true wisdom and graciousness. Thank you so much for sharing it with us all. David |

Really like this wisdom you so lovenly found the right words to give out the right dose. Emotions are a blessing but they can be a curse if we let them. I am constantly learning that lesson. |
