Stability // How to Handle Uncomfortable Emotions

What happens when emotions take the wheel in our lives, steering us into uncharted and often stormy seas? Through the lens of Psalm 42, we explore the balance between fully experiencing emotions and maintaining control over them. Emotional maturity is not just a skill; it is a fundamental pillar of spiritual growth and authentic living. By acknowledging that even Jesus felt emotions, we dismantle the stigma surrounding them and open the door to understanding how to harness feelings as part of our spiritual journey.

Imagine a world driven solely by feelings—chaotic, unpredictable, and challenging. We take you on a journey through the emotional upheavals described in Psalm 42, where a worship leader grapples with profound despair and disconnection from God. Through this narrative, we uncover the power of recalling moments of divine intervention to reinforce faith and hope during times when God seems distant. Journaling these experiences becomes a tool for solidifying our trust in God's unwavering support, serving as a beacon of strength as we navigate life's trials.

Our series does not shy away from the reality of trials in a broken world, urging listeners to redirect their hope toward God. Lamentation becomes a vital practice, allowing us to process painful experiences and anchor our emotions in truth through honest communication with God. Join us for a five-week journey, with practical steps to engage with our feelings, ultimately leading to healing and resilience. This episode is more than a discussion; it's an invitation to embrace emotions as signals for growth and to journey alongside us in faith and self-discovery.
