“The sooner we learn feelings are fickle, the better off we are.”
― Joyce Meyer, Living Beyond Your Feelings: Controlling Emotions So They Don't Control You

“Lord. Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial:”
― Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, When God Visits You

“If we have to wait to see how we feel before we know if we can enjoy the day, then we are giving feelings control over us. But thankfully we have free will and can make decisions that are not based on feelings. If we are willing to make right choices regardless of how we feel, God will always be faithful to give us the strength to do so. Living the good life that God has made ready for us is based on our being obedient to His way of being and doing. He gives us the strength to do what is right, but we are the ones who must choose it… God won’t do it for us.”
― Joyce Meyer, Living Beyond Your Feelings: Controlling Emotions So They Don't Control You

“You can always tell God how you feel and ask for His help and strength, but talking about negative feelings just to be talking does no good at all. The Bible instructs us not to speak with idle (inoperative, nonworking) words (see Matt. 12:36). If negative feelings persist, asking for prayer or seeking advice is a good thing, but once again I want to stress that talking just to be talking is useless.”
