There is always a fight between faith and sight in this life. Do you choose by faith or feelings? We are emotional creatures and there is nothing wrong with that. Yet, we must be careful to not allow our feelings to interpret our circumstances and form our thoughts about God. Do you live out of your emotions or do you live out of your faith and trust in Christ? Scripture calls us to be a people who feel what we believe, who not only know the truth but experience it. There is an order to this. Our feelings and emotions must be governed and guided by truth. We are to fear the Lord, hate evil, love the truth, mourn over sin and rejoice in our sufferings. The key is not to pursue feelings themselves but to pursue the Lord Jesus Christ by looking to Him, knowing His ways, believing his promises, and obeying His commands. Faith is first and feelings follow. Facts, faith and feelings at the end of the train!
