Message summary & scripture references
Most Christians are controlled by their feelings, which is completely backward from God’s viewpoint. At times, it may seem impossible, but God has designed us to control our feelings instead of the other way around. When our feelings are out of control, we become stressed, which leads to constant irritability and long-term depression. On the other hand, controlled feelings lead to sustainable peace and unshakable faith.
