Depression, anger, pride and arrogance, almost
everyone struggles with these emotions and expressions it takes wisdom and
understanding to know when you are taking it too far.
I have struggled with depression once and I
was one of those who took it too far. I managed to let it consume my life
almost to the point of no return. But God used my mother to pull me from the
abyss and to realize that I had taken my sadness too far.
When you allow yourself to be ruled by your
depression then it can affect the people around you. Although it may seem hard
all emotions are controllable, some people have said that they couldn’t control
their emotions and that they let their anger/depression get the best of them.
But because you can control your emotions the only thing that happens is you
allow yourself to be ruled by your emotions.
God wants us to share the light with people;
you know like Faith, Hope, Love, Peace, Joy and Happiness. These are the
emotions you should allow to run wild, these are the only emotions that should
run your life.
Depression, anger these kinds of emotions are
horrible and can lead to your own destruction if you don’t keep them under
control.
When I was growing up I had a lot of anger
problems, every time my brother would get on my nerves, I would hit him, but
because that I would get punished. Any emotion that does not walk in line with
the Fruits of the spirit can lead to your demise. Or even worse it could keep
you from fulfilling you purpose in life and separate you from God.
2 Timothy 1:7
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of
power, of love and of self-discipline.
If we cannot control ourselves then how can we
have a good life? And how would we ever be able to save souls like God wants us
to do?
