“We have emotions because we are made in the image of God and God has emotions.” Cyndie reminds us that not only did God give us emotions, but He wants us to talk to Him about those emotions—to pour out our hearts like water to Him. We aren’t to let our emotions run wild and rule us, but we should instead be guided by the Word of God. Listen in to hear what Scripture says about emotions and also receive practical tools on how to process them.

SCRIPTURES

For you formed my inward parts;

you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:13-14a ESV

You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, Exodus 20:5 ESV

You have kept count of my tossings;

put my tears in your bottle.

Are they not in your book? Psalm 56:8 ESV

Search me, God, and know my heart;

test me and know my anxious thoughts.

See if there is any offensive way in me,

and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24 NIV

Yes, my soul, find rest in God;

my hope comes from him.

Truly he is my rock and my salvation;

he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.

Trust in him at all times, you people;
