Important Note on Regulating Our Emotions

Emotions aren't just fleeting feelings; they're signposts on our journey, pointing to deeper truths within us.

It's crucial to recognise that unattended emotions can lead to 'emotion leaks.' These leaks might spill into our relationships, our work, or even our walk with God. Like ripples in water, unchecked emotions can spread and lead to misunderstandings, conflicts, and create distance in our relationships.

Often times, we bury these emotions and escape into our own world of distractions. But facing our emotions, rather than burying them, is essential to our self-growth. We have a responsibility to steward our own mental and emotional health. This is journey is definitely best taken with Jesus on our side.

When we introspect with Jesus, we're not merely analysing feelings; we're inviting God's wisdom, understanding, and healing into our hearts. This divine perspective helps us see not just what we feel, but why we feel it, enabling us to regulate our emotions for our well-being and for the benefit of those around us.

Facing emotions can be tough, but it's a path towards authenticity, healthier relationships, and a deeper connection with our Creator. It transforms us from reactors to responders, from being controlled by emotions to being guided by love. It makes us better friends, family members, and followers of Christ.

Remember, your emotions matter to God, and taking care of them is part of taking care of the beautiful creation He made in you. 🌿

Speaking courage over you this season! ◡̈
