Advice from Joyce

One of my favorite people in the whole world is Joyce Meyer. Because of her teachings, my eyes were opened to what a Christian is supposed to be like. It seems like most every sermon of hers relates to me in some way! I heard her say the most powerful statement the other day that I will never forget:

Do the right thing, and the emotions will follow.

I know this is true, because I've done it before. Sometimes when I feel like doing something but I know it's not the right thing to do, if I choose to what right, my emotions do catch and I'm thankful for making the choice. We cannot live on emotions. I used to only live mostly on emotions. If I was scared to do something, most likely I wouldn't do it. If I was mad at someone, I did not want to apologize or act like an adult. I have gotten so much better over the years. Now if I something happens that makes me sad or mad or whatever, I try my best to give it God and focus on something positive in my life. I'm telling you, unless it's something really major, I end up feeling much better. This goes back to the other post when I mentioned attitude. Joyce Meyer talks about attitude all the time. It is so important. Well, this is a short post because it is past 1:00am, and I need to go to sleep!
