put faith above feelings.

hey y'all
sorry i didnt write yesterday. we were at mitchells till late, haha. oh my goodness. i have never been so dirty. i got on that fourwheeler of kodys and went through that big old mud hole mitchell has in his yard with mitchell and oh goodness. haha. i was mud from head to toe! i even had mud up my nose. took me like 30 minutes in the shower to get clean. but we had a great time :] haha
my devotion was on putting faith above feelings. Hebrews 10:38 says, " But my righteous one will live by faith..." it teaches us that we should live by faith. sometimes negative feelings can rob of us of God's peace. if we live souly by faith, we are not seperated from God by feelings of anger and anxiety. feelings can be very fickel, our faith stays strong. we shouldnt let our negative emotions control us, we need not to trust them, but to instead trust in God. my devotion book says "Feelings come and go, but God never changes." and he really doesnt. hes always been here, always been the same, and hes always there for us. and we need to trust him when he tells us that everything will be okay no matter how bad we feel.
i love y'all!
God Bless!

wow.... I've been struggling with faith and feelings as we have gone through the last three weeks. My faith is stronger than ever, but it's hard to keep my feelings out of the mix.
BTW... thanks for blogging. You are a blessing to me and I appreciate your devotion to our God. What book are you using for your daily quiet time?

See ya Wed night...
