Feelings are Not Your Lord

“Don’t bother much about your feelings. When they are humble, loving, brave, give thanks for them: when they are conceited, selfish, cowardly, ask to have them altered. In neither case are they you, but only a thing that happens to you.” C.S. Lewis from Yours, Jack

Feelings can quickly become the tyrant in your heart, forcefully leading you one moment, then tossing you around violently like a ship at sea the next. If we aren’t careful, feelings can become the lord of our life, not Christ.

What have you learned about feelings in your life? How does this quote speak to you?
