The Bible gives us truth that is certain, though our feelings and circumstances are unstable. We may feel good and be completely in sin, or we may feel bad and be completely in God’s will. Jesus was always in the will of God, though there were times He felt grieved and distressed. The Scripture declares that Jesus was, “despised and forsaken of men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief” (Isa. 53:3). And just hours before His crucifixion, Jesus “began to be grieved and distressed” (Matt. 26:37), telling a few of His disciples, “My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death” (Matt. 26:38). Even during His time of human rejection and sorrow, Jesus was sustained by the Holy Spirit (Heb. 9:14). Jesus was always spiritual, even when He was experiencing emotional anguish. Emotions are wonderful, and in many ways complement our spiritual life (Acts 20:36-38; Eph. 5:18-20). However, we do well to subordinate our emotions to the truths of Scripture, for God calls us to live by faith His Word, not by our feelings (Rom. 10:17; Heb. 11:6).

Sunday nights listening to Daniel the Brave make for a happy evening. :)
