LMA Seven Principles
LMA Principle #3 Take Charge of Your Emotions. Unwise emotional reactions get all of us in trouble a lot of the time. Emotions are wonderful God-given blessings. They add to life and enhance our enjoyment and provide us with special moments. Yet, they are also frail, fragile things that can and do at times overwhelm us and lead to faulty, negative decisions and actions. Proverbs 15:13 “A cheerful heart puts a smile on your face, but a broken heart leads to depression.” Proverbs 16:32 “Do you want to be a mighty warrior? It is better to be known as one who is patient and slow to anger. Do you want to conquer a city? Rule over your temper before you attempt to rule a city.” Proverbs 29:11 “You can recognize fools by the way they give full vent to their rage and let their words fly! But the wise bite their tongue and hold back all they could say.” Ephesians 4:26 “But don’t let the passion of your emotions lead you to sin! Don’t let anger control you or be fuel for revenge, not for even a day.” The indwelling Spirit of God can and does help us deal with our ‘emotions’ in a healthy, productive manner. Read Principle #3 and reflect on how it applies to you and your life… ‘BE’ aware of how you display your emotions….. Psalm 90:11 (TPT Lord, who fully knows the power of your passion and the intensity of your emotions? Our God (Father-Son-Spirit) ‘knows’ the intensity and passion of our emotions……..He will help us walk in and wisely use our emotions….. Enough said….
